Résumé:
This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5601.
From 2017 – 2022, ABoVE airborne teams collected data across a wide variety of ecosystems in both the US and Canada. Depending on available funds, the team may re-fly one of the sensors to collect hyperspectral data at several locations in 2023.
For 2023, the NASA Dynamic Aviation King Air B-200 aircraft with a h...

Résumé:
This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5567.
This project has two primary objectives:
1) To investigate the differences in shrub productivity traits between undisturbed and disturbed tundra sites to better understand the impact of shrub expansion and disturbance on ecosystem function.
2) To investigate the impact of shrub productivity trait differences on deco...

Résumé:
This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5532.
The objective of the research project is to elucidate the change in the atmospheric carbon balance of thawing permafrost regions post-disturbance. The impact of disturbances such as fire, especially in conjunction with permafrost thaw, are still not well understood. By installing a new 15-m eddy covariance tower at Sc...

Résumé:
This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.4756.
The objectives of this project are as follows:
1) Updated assessment of the state of the ISR coastline
This is a continuation of long term monitoring recordings to observe the coastal change across the Inuvialuit Settlement Region (ISR). The research team will work with community members to establish new areas of co...

2012 Résumé:
The purpose of this project is to:
1) coordinate monitoring and research efforts in the watershed between the community, government, and universities;
2) understand current aquatic health of the watershed using water quality, macroinvertebrates, aquatic furbearers and fish as indicators of ecosystem health;
3) understand historical environmental change and contaminant loading in the watershed u...

Résumé:
The Coast Guard vessel CCGS Nahidik will be used as a research platform to conduct offshore surveys in the Beaufort Sea. A regional grid of survey lines which were first surveyed in the1980's will be resurveyed as follows: (1) using a 300kHz short range multibeam echo sounder (Simrad EM 3000) to produce along-track maps of the topography and character of the seabed. These tracks will be approxi...

Résumé:
The main objective of the proposed research is to reconstruct the structure of monospecific forests of different ages, and to explore whether or not the recent climate change has affected the structure of the forests in northern Canada. Pure stands of Jack pine or aspen will be studied in Wood Buffalo National Park. The intent is to determine the effect of the so-called Climate Change on those f...
