Using the past to inform the future: A paleoecological perspective of the impacts of drought and fire on lakes, permafrost and forests
Principal Investigator: Pisaric, Michael FJ
Licensed Year(s): 2019 2018 2017 2016
Summary: The objectives of this research are to examine the frequency and severity of past wildfire and drought (drought-like) conditions in the southern Northwest Territories. Specifically, the research team will examine the following questions: 1) how frequent and severe have fires been in the past; 2) are fires becoming more frequent/severe due to the impacts of climate change; 3) what impact does wildf...


Hydrological and contaminant studies in the Marian Watershed, NWT, to enhance community-based cumulative effects monitoring
Principal Investigator: Wolfe, Brent BBW
Licensed Year(s): 2016
Summary: While water and sediment quality monitoring in areas of industrial developments is an integral part of water management programs to ensure protection of ecosystems, absence of long-term measurements can make it challenging to define reference conditions effectively. As a contribution to the Marian Watershed Stewardship Program (MWSP), this research uses paleolimnological approaches to establish ba...
