Biogeochemistry of Lakes in the Mackenzie Delta
Principal Investigator: Lesack, Lance
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5554. The objectives of this project are to improve the understanding of methane cycling in Mackenzie Delta lakes and how it is affected by the changing water levels and to decipher the impact of water level changes on the ability of the Mackenzie Delta to affect riverine carbon and nutrient flow to the ocean. Improve un...


Monitoring the impacts of permafrost thaw on water resources at Scotty Creek, NWT
Principal Investigator: Quinton, William L.
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5521. 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 follo...


Hydrology of High Latitude Watersheds
Principal Investigator: Marsh, Philip
Licensed Year(s): 2023 2022 2021 2020 2019 2018 2017 2016 2015 2014 2013 2012 2011 2010 2009 2008 2007 2006
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5496. The objectives of this project are: 1) to develop improved understanding of, and ability to predict, snowcover formation and melt, as well as stream discharge in northern regions; 2) consider the integrated effect of climate on vegetation, snow, permafrost, streamflow, and lakes; and 4) develop improved predictive mod...


Aquifer Mapping of the Hay River and Kakisa/Cameron Hills Transboundary Region in Alberta & Northwest Territories
Principal Investigator: Palombi, Dan
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5382. There is limited knowledge of groundwater resources in the Alberta-Northwest Territories transboundary basins. Hydrogeological information to delineate transboundary groundwater is scarce and aquifers in this area have not been fully defined and mapped. The primary and long-term goal of the research project is to cont...


Arctic Great Rivers Observatory 4
Principal Investigator: Holmes, Robert M
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023 2022 2020 2019 2018 2017 2016 2015 2014 2013 2012 2011 2010 2009
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5441. The Arctic Great Rivers Observatory project studies the six largest rivers in the Arctic: the Mackenzie and Yukon Rivers in North America, and the Ob', Yenisey, Lena, and Kolyma Rivers in Russia. The research team are interested in understanding how climate change is impacting Arctic rivers. The team take measurements...

Principal Investigator: Jamieson, Rob
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5413. The overall objective of this study is improved understanding of wastewater effluent transport within permafrost environments in the NWT. The proposed study aims to answer the following questions: 1) What is the potential for contamination of groundwater and receiving waters through active layer transport of effluent...


Nutrient and contaminant status in the wetlands of the Slave River Delta
Principal Investigator: Doig, Lorne
Licensed Year(s): 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5337. The objective is to answer key questions: 1. From the outer SRD (river-water dominated) to the apex of the SRD (runoff dominated), what is the current status of nutrients and contaminants in SRD wetland ecosystems? 2. How do trace elements (e.g., mercury) move through SRD wetland food webs? 3. How does water source...


NWT Streams and Rivers of the future: How permafrost thaw and groundwater activation are changing water resources (CIMP226)
Principal Investigator: Wright, Stephanie
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5294. The purpose of this study has four objectives: 1) Assess the spatial and temporal patterns of hydrologic change (groundwater and surface water) in the La Martre River and Trout River catchments (O1); 2) Identify the drivers, processes, and feedbacks responsible for the hydrologic changes identified in O1 and how they ...


Ekati Diamond Mine
Principal Investigator: Pacholski, Laura J
Licensed Year(s): 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5107. The main objectives of the field work for 2022 will be to determine if the Ekati Diamond Mine is having an effect on the surrounding aquatic environment, wildlife, and air quality, and to provide baseline data for areas where mine development may occur in the future. In winter, water samples will be collected unde...
