Vegetation Productivity on the Bathurst Caribou Range
Principal Investigator: Danby, Ryan K
Licensed Year(s): 2023
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5610. The purpose of this project is to map and analyze changes in vegetation productivity and phenology across the range of the Bathurst caribou herd. The project is rooted in two basic objectives: 1) Map changes in vegetation productivity on an annual basis across the herd’s range using satellite imagery obtained from NA...


Tłı̨chǫ Highway 2022 Caribou, Dust, and Vegetation Monitoring
Principal Investigator: Steinwand, Tyanna
Licensed Year(s): 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5210. The purpose of this project is to determine changes in todzi harvesting pressure following construction of the road. The research team will determine sustainable levels of harvest for boreal caribou in the North Slave area before the road is built; Monitor harvesting pressure on boreal caribou and moose after the road...


Changing Carbon Sinks in Sub-Arctic Canada
Principal Investigator: Schiff, Sherry L
Licensed Year(s): 2022 2021
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5150. The objective is to improve the quantitative understanding of carbon dynamics in Canadian subarctic freshwaters, with a focus on identifying the processes governing the balance between carbon sinks and carbon sources to the atmosphere. The research team will pair field-based observations with laboratory experiments...


When do Caribou return?: Impacts of Wildfires on Todzi (Boreal Caribou)
Principal Investigator: Pellissey, Jody
Licensed Year(s): 2017 2016 2015
Summary: The long-term objective of this project is to document todzi sites associated with habitat that remain undisturbed and others where habitat has been burned by wildfires. The research team will focus on the research/monitoring questions of ‘when do todzi return to and stay in an area that has been burnt. This year the team is scoping places where todzi have been watched and hunted overtime. The...


Relating changes in snowpack water equivalent and structure to migratory behaviour of the Bathurst Caribou herd
Principal Investigator: English, Michael C
Licensed Year(s): 2016
Summary: The objectives are to work with local residents of Wekweeti to understand how changes in the annual snowpack may impact caribou. The idea is that with increased incursions of warm southern air into the subarctic during winter that snow crusts and ice lenses may be created in the snowpack and as a result increase the energy expenditures of the caribou when foraging for food at the base of the snowp...


Baseline Monitoring of Arctic Vegetation and Snow Changes over the Bathurst Caribou Habitat using Satellite Remote Sensing and Community-based Field Observations
Principal Investigator: Chen, Wenjun
Licensed Year(s): 2014 2013
Summary: The goals of this research project are: 1. To fill the information gap on Bathurst caribou summer range conditions using satellite remote sensing data and community-based ground vegetation monitoring 2. To develop a cumulative impact assessment method that makes cumulative impact assessment possible even if data are incomplete and provides timely feedback for guiding the refinement of monitoring...


Past and future fire dynamics: implications for central arctic caribou and dependent communities (Community based component)
Principal Investigator: Jacobsen, Petter F
Licensed Year(s): 2010 2009
Summary: This licence is being issued for the scientific research application No.1294. The research is part of the larger research project on the correlation between increased forest fires and decreasing caribou population in the Northwest Territories. The intent is to record TEK concerning environments rebounding from forest fires, the correlation between these areas and the caribou population,...


Voices of the Caribou People
Principal Investigator: Kofinas, Gary P
Licensed Year(s): 2008
Summary: This research is a video-based effort to document knowledge of the caribou people about ecological change. The aim is to collect observations, impressions and concerns of the indigenous people about the caribou in form of short documentaries and communicate those voices to other communities, scientists and the general public. This project is being conducted as part of the CARMA - International Pol...
