| Project Title | Post Date | Summary |
|---|---|---|
| Pan-Territorial Adaptation Initiatives | 02-17-2012 |
Addressing climate change and identifying approaches for supporting current and future climate change adaptation projects across the Canadian Arctic. |
| Past and present changes to the ocean and sea-ice in the Arctic Archipelago | 03-06-2012 |
The goal of this project is to provide the modelling framework for future impact studies on the Canadian Arctic Archipelago’s pack ice, oceanography and marine food web. |
| Research on Arctic marine mammals | 03-06-2012 |
Research on Arctic marine mammals via the collection of detailed empirical information throughout Canadian Arctic marine ecosystems, using a variety of methods including both scientific and local knowledge. |
| Sea Ice of the Arctic | 03-06-2012 |
This project brings together key sea ice researchers to examine the processes that cause the observed changes in sea ice dynamic and thermodynamic processes, snow cover, and physical coupling across the ocean-sea ice-atmosphere (OSA) interface. |
| Snowmelt project | 05-22-2015 |
Metal loading and retention in Arctic tundra lakes during spring runoff |
| The People, Animals, Water and Sustenance Program | 07-28-2016 |
The People, Animals, Water, and Sustenance (PAWS) Project is interested in gaining a better understanding of the relationships Iqaluit Inuit have with dogs, water, and food. Currently there are gaps in our understanding of the interactions between dogs, water, and food in a Northern context. In-depth interviews on these topics coupled with sampling of dog feces, water, and clams will help us understand how these relationships interact together and how these relationships may be changing. |
| Water, mud, and bubbles: Impacts of permafrost degradation on greenhouse gas emissions from Arctic ponds and lakes | 12-14-2015 |
Carbon cycle dynamics in response to permafrost degradation is a ‘hot topic’ in northern research. |
