Impact of wildfire and forest management on permafrost and post-fire regeneration
chercheur principal: Baltzer, Jennifer L
Année(s) de permis: 2024 2023 2022 2021 2020 2019
Résumé: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5543. This projects two main objectives are to monitor the recovery of NWT forests following wildfire to better understand post-fire changes on forest composition and ground vegetation and to develop baseline information about proposed forest management areas to support assessment of harvesting impacts on these areas. T...


Impacts of climate change on wildfire risk in boreal forests in the Northwest Territories
chercheur principal: Asselin, Hugo
Année(s) de permis: 2019 2018
Résumé: The three main objectives of this research are: 1) to reconstruct the multi-century history of wildfire and vegetation in the Northwest Territories by analyzing charcoal contained in lake sediments; 2) to establish the links between recent fire activity and climatic data by studying tree growth rings (annual resolution); and, 3) to combine this scientific knowledge to indigenous knowledge obtained...


Effects of wildfire on biomass combustion in boreal peatlands and forests
chercheur principal: Turetsky, Merritt R.
Année(s) de permis: 2011
Résumé: The objective is to quantify the amount of fuel combustion and carbon losses during wildfires in boreal conifer forests and peatlands. These data will allow us to quantify climatic and weather controls on the severity of biomass burning. Boreal forests and peatlands store a large amount of carbon in vegetation and soils. Climate change is predicted to increase summer drought, which could mak...
