Variability in peat plateau energy balance and water chemistry along a warming gradient
Principal Investigator: English, Michael C
Licensed Year(s): 2013
Summary: This research is physically based on a peat plateau and a peat bog, both close to Yellowknife. There are two primary objectives to this research. The first involves quantifying surface energy balances in areas where degradation of peat is pronounced and where it is not. Suprapermafrost water from the degraded and non-degraded sites will be analyzed for nutrients and dissolved organic carbon (DOC) ...


The effect of UV light on bacterial growth rates in lakes and ponds in the Canadian High Arctic
Principal Investigator: Howard, Susan
Licensed Year(s): 1993 1992
Summary: Ozone depletion in the High Arctic could result in exposure of aquatic organisms (such as bacteria) to higher levels of ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun. This increased exposure to radiation may be harmful to bacteria and have an effect on organisms which feed on bacteria. I will collect water samples from lakes and ponds in the Resolute area in order to measure bacterial growth rates as ...
