Polar Night Expeirment
Principal Investigator: Mariani, Zen
Licensed Year(s): 2025
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 6096. Acquire new knowledge needed to improve weather and climate forecasts in the polar regions through a better understanding of key physical processes and an improved representation of those processes within numerical weather and climate prediction systems. Cal/val of the planned AOS observations during its preparato...


Undercover Ice Agents
Principal Investigator: Langer, Moritz
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5987. The aim of the citizen science project UndercoverEisAgenten is to study permafrost changes in the Arctic to raise awareness of these environmental changes and strengthen the data basis for science. Students from Moose Kerr school in Aklavik will design their own permafrost change related research questions and work w...


Fluxes from Land to Ocean: How Coastal Habitats in the Arctic Respond (FLO CHAR)
Principal Investigator: Juhls, Bennet
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5841. The overall objective of this project is to determine the impact of changing land-ocean matter fluxes and coastal subsea permafrost on nearshore ecosystems and biodiversity in the Beaufort Sea. To reveal the trajectory of coastal habitats, it is critical to (1) determine how fluvial and coastal fluxes from the land...


THAWPOND-NWT – Remote sensing analysis of vegetation and thaw pond colour dynamics in the continuous permafrost zone: from local to regional (Northwest Territories, Arctic Canada)
Principal Investigator: Vieira, Gonçalo
Licensed Year(s): 2023
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5639. The goal of this research project is to better understand the characteristics of various different lakes, how their characteristics vary, as well as their potential relation to permafrost thaw events in the recent or distant past. The frequency of occurrence across space and time as well as the variability of: 1) opt...


Measuring surface displacement using winter SAR
Principal Investigator: Rabus, Bernhard
Licensed Year(s): 2023 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5676. The objective of this research is to determine: 1) the accuracy of existing physical models of the Interferometric synthetic-aperture radar (InSAR) dry snow signal; 2) if the snow signature can be removed to enable accurate measurement of heave from winter refreezing in the active layer. There are currently three ...


The Great Bear Lake ice thickness and water quality observations under current and future climates (2022-2025)
Principal Investigator: Kheyrollah Pour, Homa
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5677. This project aims to reconstruct trends in ice phenology using remotely-sensed and ground-based observations and collective memories of land-based and in-lake changes by communities living along the shoreline of Great Bear Lake (GBL) to characterize the interannual variability of ice formation in the lake and determi...


Mapping, monitoring and modelling permafrost change in the NWT
Principal Investigator: Kokelj, Steve V
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023 2022 2021
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5473. The primary objectives of this research are: 1) to develop and test new methods of characterizing permafrost and monitoring permafrost landscape change with a focus on the Beaufort Delta, central Mackenzie Valley and North Slave regions; 2) mapping sensitive permafrost terrain across NWT by integrating expert assessme...


Watershed-scale geomorphic response to climate change in the Aklavik Range, NWT
Principal Investigator: Strauss, Justin Vincent
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5411. or this latest phase of research, the research team propose to integrate field observations, geochemical techniques, and historical remote sensing analysis to quantify the rates and processes by which sediment is generated from bedrock and transported downslope via hillslope and river processes under a changing climat...
