Northern Native Seed Development Field Trials
Principal Investigator: Trimble, Annika EV
Licensed Year(s): 2018 2017 2016 2015 2014 2013 2012 2011 2010 2009 2007 2006
Summary: The objective of this sub-project is to continue assessing the performance of native plants which were seeded and transplanted into field plots in 2006 and 2007. The investigator intends to collect data regarding winter survival, seedling emergence, and overall plant vigour and productivity in order to assess each species' and collection's suitability for use in land reclamation in the NWT. Th...


Northern Native Plant Development Collections in the NWT
Principal Investigator: Seccombe-Hett, Pippa
Licensed Year(s): 2018 2007 2006
Summary: This project has been designed in order to develop technologies utilized to propagate and cultivate native plant species. The main deliverable will ultimately provide a system where-by these species will become available for commercial production and use in revegetation and reclamation in the Northwest Territories. The need for native plant seed for reclamation and restoration has been identified ...


Environmental Studies for the Proposed Parsons Lake Development Area During Summer 2007 – Vegetation Studies
Principal Investigator: Graf, Linda H
Licensed Year(s): 2007 2006
Summary: The objective of the vegetation study is to continue to record baseline information on lichen health and productivity which may then be used to monitor impacts as a result of construction and operation activities in the proposed Parsons Lake development area. These studies are a continuation of those conducted previously in summer and fall of 2006. The study will link to caribou monito...


Canadian Arctic Plants: Systematics, Evolution and Floristics
Principal Investigator: Gillespie, Lynn J.
Licensed Year(s): 2003 2000
Summary: This research will study variation among arctic plants (bluegrasses, alkali grasses, arctic poppies, arctic mustards) to better define species so that arctic plants may be more easily identified, and to better understand the origin and evolutionary relat...


To Study the Role of Alternative Pathway Respiration in Arctic Plants
Principal Investigator: Cummins, W. Raymond
Licensed Year(s): 1991 1990 1989
Summary: Professor Cummins and his team will estimate potential productivity of plants in northern ecosystems and will investigate further the exceptionally high rate of respiration and alternative pathway respiration which they have discovered in arctic plants. They will use nitrate and ammonium electrodes to survey the levels of available nitrogen in wet and dry meadows on Devon...
