Active Layer Monitoring Network in the Mackenzie Valley
Principal Investigator: Nixon, Mark
Licensed Year(s): 2008 2007 2006 2005 2004 2003 2002 2001 2000 1999 1998 1997 1996 1995 1994 1993 1992 1991 1990
Summary: This ongoing survey examines permafrost so as to better understand how the active layer varies locally and regionally and how it will respond to environmental change, including but not restricted to climate change. The research team will survey from For...


Temperature relations and interactions of arctic woolly-bear caterpillars and their insect parasitoids
Principal Investigator: Morewood, Dean
Licensed Year(s): 1994 1993
Summary: Surveys will be conducted in order to: (1) document the life stages of the caterpillars (e.g., eggs, larvae, pupae and adults) during the summer; (2) count the number of caterpillars killed by insect `parasites' or parasitoids; and (3) document the timing of the insect parasitoids's life cycle. Finally, since temperature affects growth, experiments with different temperatures will be use to exami...


Effects of predicted climate change on high arctic plants
Principal Investigator: Henry, Gregory H.R.
Licensed Year(s): 1994 1993 1992
Summary: As part of a long-term study, we will continue to monitor the field experiments set up at Alexandra Fiord on Ellesmere Island which examine the effects of climate warming on high arctic plants. Small enclosures have been placed on top of the plants in order that the growing conditions such as temperature and moisture can be altered and their influences on the plants examined. This study is part ...


BORUP FIORD 91
Principal Investigator: Hankinson, Flt. LT. K.W.
Licensed Year(s): 1991 1988
Summary: Multi-disciplinary research will be undertaken in botany, geology, micro meteorology, soil science, remote sensing, breeding biology of Arctic char and archaeological survey. These studies are a continuation of those begun in 1988....
