Summary: The objective of this project is to collect physical and geophysical measurements quantifying permafrost susceptibility to ABoVE's internationally-available dataset. Researchers can access these data to bolster understanding of environmental processes and the ability to remotely-sense these on a regional scale. Airborne remote sensing missions from August 2017, 2018, and August of 2019 by NASA'...

Summary: The objectives of this survey are to measure patterns of methane (CH4) concentrations over the Mackenzie Delta and to quantify the emissions of CH4 from this area. Together with the data of our previous campaigns we will be able to analyse the interannual variability of methane fluxes. Furthermore, the research team will investigate the possibility of linking in-situ data of tundra landscape ch...

Summary: The proposed European Space Agency Earth Explorer 7 CoReH20 satellite mission has the primary objective of retrieving snow water equivalent (SWE) over land at a high spatial resolution (200-500 metres). This would make available high resolution, satellite derived SWE, for monitoring and modeling applications. To-date, airborne measurements to test the CoReH20 satellite mission concept have been ac...

Licensed Year(s): 2012
Summary: The objectives of this project are to: 1. Gather Traditional, local, and scientific knowledge and information concerning environmental and cultural changes related to climate change and permafrost degradation. 2. Conduct a focus group mapping session, a geological survey, and an air photo survey of Jean Marie River (JMR) and the surrounding area to locate vulnerable areas of land to climate c...

Summary: A Lake Bathymetry Survey is required for lakes along the proposed Highway between km 105 and km 120. The objective of the survey is to gather lake bathymetry data in support of estimating water volumes required for regulatory approval for winter water extraction. This work will be completed further to responsible environmental and engineering practices as outlined in Environmental Impact State...
