Résumé: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.4994. The goal of this project is to document existing environmental conditions surrounding the Project area. Studies may include the following. Hydrology studies include the measurement of selected lake inflow and outflow and stream profile through field surveys, and installation of data loggers to continually monitor l...

chercheur principal: Nearing, Michelle
Année(s) de permis: 2021
Résumé: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5047. The objective of the study is to determine environmental conditions (in particular metal concentrations) and to compare existing conditions on and near the Rail Bed to background. The proposed field program will focus on collecting information that is considered critical for completing a human health and ecological ri...

chercheur principal: Carnochan, Stacey
Année(s) de permis: 2021
Résumé: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.4987. The proposed Fieldwork will inform the baseline setting of the environmental site assessment (ESA), while also aiding in the development of feasible mitigation measures that will reduce potential effects that the Project may have on wetlands, wildlife, and vegetation. As well, the fieldwork reconnaissance will provide...

chercheur principal: Boa-Antwi, Kofi
Année(s) de permis: 2021
Résumé: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5016. The goal of this project is to determine whether dust generated from mining activities is causing a measurable change in dust deposition to and/or metals uptake in lichen closer to and further from the mine. If a significant difference in uptake is noted closer to versus further from the mine, a health risk assessment...

Année(s) de permis: 2021
Résumé: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.4858. The objective of the project is to conduct environmental monitoring of wildlife (incidental observations only), vegetation, air quality, hydrology, and aquatics in the Snap Lake study area. Methods used are outlined in the management and monitoring plans (aquatic effects monitoring program, water management plan [s...

chercheur principal: Pacholski, Laura J
Année(s) de permis: 2020
Résumé: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.4671. The main objectives of the field work for 2020 will be: 1) to determine if the Ekati Diamond Mine is having an effect on the surrounding aquatic environment, wildlife, and air quality; and 2) to provide baseline data for areas where mine development may occur in the future. In winter, water samples will be collect...

Résumé: The goal of this thesis is to characterize the hydrology of an alpine valley's landscape Types (LTs) and how they affect storage and runoff responses to precipitation through the following four research objectives: 1) a physical description of LTs composing an alpine study catchment that are expected to exhibit distinct hydrological responses to precipitation inputs; 2) a physical description of w...

chercheur principal: Chasmer, Laura E
Année(s) de permis: 2019
Résumé: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.4527. The objectives are to: 1) Compare the distribution of tree and shrub biomass within accessible areas in the Taiga Shield and Taiga Plains landscapes using lidar remote sensing, and by developing tree and shrub vegetation biomass models from field data; 2) Characterize and compare non fire-disturbed patterns of veget...

chercheur principal: Danby, Ryan K
Année(s) de permis: 2019 2018
Résumé: The two main objectives are: to map changes in vegetation productivity on an annual basis across the Bathurst caribou herd’s range using satellite imagery obtained from NASA’s MODIS sensor (available since 2000) and analyze these data to identify where the most significant changes have occurred; and to collect and analyze data on the growth, establishment, and mortality of shrubs and trees over th...

chercheur principal: Gurney, Kirsty E.
Année(s) de permis: 2019 2018 2017
Résumé: The project aims to build community partnerships, identify field sites, and develop and implement sampling protocols for long term, community-based, monitoring of wetland ecosystems near Fort Good Hope (FGH). Whereas some wetlands in the study area have either already been, or are likely to be, impacted by a wide range of industrial activities, including development of oil and gas and associat...
