Monitoring cumulative effects to water quality: An NWT Pilot Study
chercheur principal: Chin, Krista
Année(s) de permis: 2022 2021 2020
Résumé: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5328. The objective of this project is to collect water quality data from regionally-representative lakes that can inform resource management decisions on cumulative impacts within the Northwest Territories (NWT). Using a computer program the research team will select 30 lakes within the Daring Lake area based on expect...


Biocomplexity of frost-boil ecosystems
chercheur principal: Walker, Donald A
Année(s) de permis: 2006 2005 2004 2003
Résumé: The goal of this project is to understand the complex linkages between biogeochemical cycles, vegetation, disturbance and climate across the full summer temperature gradient in the Arctic in order to better predict ecosystem responses to changing climate...


Modelling the Flow and Storage Components in the Lower Liard River Valley
chercheur principal: Quinton, William L.
Année(s) de permis: 2016 2015 2014 2013 2012 2011 2010 2009 2008 2007 2006 2005 2004 2003 2001
Résumé: This study seeks to better understand the processes affecting the flow and storage of water in the Lower Liard Valley. This information will be used to improve predictions of runoff and water storage levels. The research will involve continued monitori...


Ecological and geomorphological investigations in the alpine tundra of the Mackenzie Mountains, NWT.
chercheur principal: Kershaw, G. Peter
Année(s) de permis: 2002 2001 2000 1999 1998 1997 1996 1995 1994 1993
Résumé: The main study objectives are to: 1) determine the status of permafrost landforms in the study area, and 2) determine long-term recovery after abandonment of the CANOL No. 1 project. Access during the summer is via the Yukon along the Canol Road through Macmillan Pass. Beyond the base camp mountain bikes and foot will be the means of transport. Automated microclimate stations powered by solar ene...


Long-term forest-tundra disturbance research
chercheur principal: Wein, Ross
Année(s) de permis: 1993 1992 1989 1988 1987
Résumé: In previous research in the 1970's, experiments and surveys provided information on the recovery rates of vegetation in response to disturbances from human activities. Several predictions about the long-term recovery of vegetation were made at that time. We are now collecting data to determine if these predictions reflect what is actually occurring. This information provides information about l...
