How are changes on the land affecting water resources around Fort Good Hope and Ts’ude Niline Tuyeta?
Principal Investigator: Comte, Jerome
Licensed Year(s): 2023
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5646. This project proposes to evaluate responses of aquatic ecosystems to permafrost thaw, lake drying, and wildfire, as well as their cumulative impacts. The researchers will characterize lake chemistry and biological diversity (microbes and invertebrates) in water (current environmental change) and in sediments (histori...
