This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5971.
As part of the ERC-synergy project Q-Arctic, we plan to investigate biogeochemical and biogeophysical processes along transects following landscape gradients, and study carbon cycle processes within small to medium-sized lakes including their watersheds. Gradients on land include natural variability within
heterogen...

Summary:
This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5269.
This project will determine the impact of cation exchange between minerals and surface waters and quantify the release from the exchange pool as fresh water enters the oceans. This will be achieved through careful sampling of suspended sediment and water from regions of fresh to saline waters of the Mackenzie River.

2019 Summary:
This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.4717.
The overall goal of this project is to increase knowledge of how tundra environments interact with the atmosphere and predict how changing tundra vegetation will affect future climates. Tundra ecosystems exchange energy, water and carbon gases with the atmosphere, which are important elements of the climate system. As...

The objective of this study is to understand how permafrost slumping increases the mobilization of carbon from land to water, and the effects of this transport on stream ecosystems and the global carbon cycle. This summer, the research team will measure streamwater chemistry at a series of sites draining from the Peel Plateau, near where they enter the Mackenzie Delta. At one site (Stony Creek), t...

Summary:
The specific objectives of this project are:
1) to document trends in export of coastal, riverine and subterranean dissolved and particulate organic matter and carbon into the Arctic Ocean;
2) to determine their fate and related processes (origin and age, transport, physical, chemical, and biological transformation) in coastal waters and estuarine sediment; and
3) to assess the impacts of thes...

20172016 Summary:
The research goal is to look at how permafrost is changing following forest fire over a range of environmental conditions, with the purpose of improving how change is modelled in the future. The fires of 2014 in the southwestern NWT provide an opportunity to examine how discontinuous permafrost responds to disturbances. This work is being carried out in collaboration with an inter-university team ...
