Impacts of wildfire extent and severity on caribou habitat
Principal Investigator: Baltzer, Jennifer L
Licensed Year(s): 2018 2017 2016
Summary: The main objective of this fieldwork is to support the collection of data for predictive caribou habitat mapping within the forested areas of the Taiga Plains and Taiga Shield Ecoregions in NWT, roughly south of Great Bear Lake. The research team will complete the establishment of a network of long-term study plots across a range of fire characteristics and vegetation types, where the team will me...

Impacts of forest fire on discontinuous permafrost in the south-western Northwest Territories
Principal Investigator: Lewkowicz, Antoni G
Licensed Year(s): 2018 2017 2016
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 ...

Licence #1990
Principal Investigator: Johnson, Edward A.
Licensed Year(s): 1976
Summary: To explore the role of fire in the sub-arctic ecosystem. Starting in 1976 and continuing for two years studies will be related to: 1) a biophysical land classification system, 2) peatland vegetation change, 3) regulation of nutrient losses in the sub-arctic ecosystem, and 4) paleoecology....
