Hydrology of Northern Latitudes
Principal Investigator: Marsh, Philip
Licensed Year(s): 2025
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 6164. The objectives of this project are unchanged from year 1 of this 5 year application, and are to: (1) develop improved understanding of, and ability to predict, the complex northern hydrologic system, (2) over the 30 year period of record, consider the integrated effect of the changing climate on vegetation, snow,...


Investigations of the water cycle and hydrological processes of the subarctic Canadian Shield
Principal Investigator: Spence, Christopher
Licensed Year(s): 2025
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5545. The objective of this research is to determine how climate warming and permafrost presence influence the water cycle and water chemistry of Taiga Shield streams. The proposed work will take place within a research basin framework. The proposed watershed, the upper reaches of Baker Creek, is a typical Taiga Shield ...


EREX Scientific Research Licence
Principal Investigator: Hayward, April
Licensed Year(s): 2025
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 6157. The objective of the baseline data collection programs is to characterize existing conditions in the Project area. Desktop and field-based baseline studies will focus on characterizing air quality; light and noise; climate and meteorology; surface and ground water quantity and quality; geochemistry; fish, fish habita...


Remote sensing of winter snow and soil moisture status using airborne Ku and L- band Synthetic Aperture Radar observations (2025)
Principal Investigator: Kelly, Richard
Licensed Year(s): 2025
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 6137. The main objectives are: 1. to fly a novel Ku- and L-band synthetic aperture radar (SAR) system over snow covered tundra land, lakes and sea ice in winter to obtain unique radar observations of these environments; 2. to use collected field measurements acquired by ongoing field work by P. Marsh's (PI) group at Trail ...


Hydrological impacts of wildfire in peatland-dominated discontinuous permafrost terrain
Principal Investigator: Quinton, William L.
Licensed Year(s): 2025
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 6132. The long-term objective of this research programme is to improve the understanding, parameterisation and prediction of water flow and storage processes in peatland-dominated, thawing, discontinuous permafrost. Over the next 5 years, significant progress toward this long term objective will be made through the followi...


Investigating the susceptibility of drilling mud sumps to permafrost thaw - ThinIce
Principal Investigator: Langer, Moritz
Licensed Year(s): 2025 2024
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 6098. This research aims to describe permafrost conditions and assess environmental risk at several drilling waste sumps in the Mackenzie Delta region, NWT. We have the following specific objectives. Assess the vulnerability of drilling mud sumps in the Mackenzie Delta region under varying site conditions and different ...


Cirque Lake Outflow, Dale Creek & Tributary and Tsichu River Tributary Sampling
Principal Investigator: Ponsford, Ian
Licensed Year(s): 2025
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 6070. The objective of the research project remains the same as submitted under application #5975: To collect baseline data related to potential future developments of the Mactung Property. Baseline surface water quality, hydrology, and fish habitat data will be collected in anticipation of regulatory authorization require...


Cirque Lake Outflow, Dale Creek & Tributary and Tsichu River Tributary Sampling
Principal Investigator: Ponsford, Ian
Licensed Year(s): 2024
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5975. To collect baseline data related to water quality, hydrology, and fish habitat from 11 different locations at the outflow of Cirque Lake and along Dale Creek, as well as tributaries of both Dale Creek and the Tsichu River. Baseline data will be obtained from the surface water quality monitoring stations WR-1, WR-2, W...


Enhanced Characterization of Groundwater Flow Phenomena Within Discontinuous Permafrost Terrain in the Central Mackenzie
Principal Investigator: Rudolph, David
Licensed Year(s): 2024
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5990. The main objective of the proposed research is to continue investigating the groundwater flow conditions within the Central Mackenzie Valley of the Northwest Territories (NWT), with a specific focus on how permafrost discontinuity and thaw processes will influence groundwater circulation and interaction with surface...


Wildfires and contaminated landscapes: The impact of wildfire on the mobility, transport and fate of metal(loids) in a subarctic shield landscape
Principal Investigator: Devoie, Élise
Licensed Year(s): 2024
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5898. The main goal of this project is to explore how wildfire will affect the stability and fate of metals and metalloids (i.e. arsenic, mercury, antimony) in mining contaminated and pristine landscapes. Metal(loid) concentrations in air, soil, and water in and around Boundary Creek (30 km west of Yellowknife) will be co...
