Treeline Dynamics in Western Canadian Arctic
chercheur principal: Green, Scott
Année(s) de permis: 2009 2008
Résumé: The project will examine past tree growth patterns at the northern treeline in Western Canada as a baseline to predict future growth responses to climate change. Additionally, the researchers will examine tree regeneration and plant associations at the northern treeline. Annual tree rings represent a growth response to local climate. Wide growth rings represent good growing conditions, and nar...


Post-fire forest regeneration in the Western Canadian continental boreal forest: measurement and landscape modeling
chercheur principal: Gal, Ruth A.C.
Année(s) de permis: 2005
Résumé: The objective of this study is to develop a landscape model capable of predicting regeneration after fire in the Northern Boreal Forest. Data has been collected in the past from Porter Lake (near Lutsel K'e), Big Fish Lake, Alberta, and Wood Buffalo National Park, between Pine Lake and Peace Point. Data has also been collected from the International Crown Fire Modeling Experiment near Fort Pro...


Analaysis of Bathurst Caribou Herd Dynamics Using a Proxy Indicator
chercheur principal: Zalatan, Rebecca
Année(s) de permis: 2004 2003
Résumé: Caribou populations fluctuate over long time spans, however, long-term records of population cycles are scarce. The population dynamics of the Bathurst caribou herd across the Northwest Territories will be reconstructed using two proxy indicators of cli...


Diavik Diamond Mines Inc. 2002 Aquatic Effects Monitoring Program
chercheur principal: Wytrychowski, Scott I
Année(s) de permis: 2024 2023 2022 2021 2019 2018 2017 2016 2015 2014 2013 2012 2011 2010 2009 2008 2007 2005 2004 2003 2002 2001
Résumé: The purpose of the 2002 Aquatic Effects Monitoring Program is to initiate a long-term aquatics sampling program in order to produce a data set that will be used in trend analyses to track the overall effects of the project on the aquatic ecosystem of Lac...


Desperation Pond and Carrie Pond Fish Transfer Program
chercheur principal: Armstrong, Allison
Année(s) de permis: 2001
Résumé: The capture and processing of fishes, including biological data collection, sample analysis, and recording of field data are the responsibility of BHP based on DFO approved methods described herein. The Project Biologist will be at site during crew training, to participate in the collection of data and to ensure the quality of data. The Project Biologist will also be responsible for collating an...


Reconstruction of Forest Structure and function in Canadian Taiga
chercheur principal: Osawa, Akira
Année(s) de permis: 1998 1997
Résumé: The research team will consist of forest ecologists. We plan to study a few jack pine stands by taking stem samples for examination of forest growth that occurred in the past. A possible effect of climate change on the growth of forests are being examined. Several trees were cut and were analyzed last year. This summer several additional stems will be sampled. When a tree is cut, we try not to dis...


A Fire History, Fuel and Ecological Assessments of the Fort Smith, NWT area
chercheur principal: Brungs Simard, Hanita
Année(s) de permis: 1996
Résumé: The study area will be sampled on a 2x2 km grid as the vegetation type of the area in question is predominantly jack pine. At each 2 km interval 3 procedures are done: 1) plant identification and % cover of each species in approx. 100 m. sq., 2) tally of the fuels (logs, twigs, branches) that fall along a triangular transect, 3) discs are removed from one large unscarred tree and one scarred tree...


Modelling the establishment and growth of post-fire tree seedlings
chercheur principal: Gal, Ruth Ann
Année(s) de permis: 1993 1992
Résumé: As a result of global warming (which results from increased amounts of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere), it is suggested that the number of forest fires and the amount of area burned may increase in the northern boreal forests. The types of trees that grow first in these burned areas may be different from those that would have grown in if the climate was cooler. I will collect data at burn site...
