This report provides a summary of field activities, and air temperature, ground-thermal and active-layer data acquired in 2017 are provided in graphical and tabular format. -
Permafrost is warming at a global scale
Here we use a global data set of permafrost temperature time series to evaluate temperature change across permafrost regions since 2007. -
Permafrost Degradation Subarctic Canadian Shield
Recent ground temperature and observational data for lithalsas are examined in the context of an inventory of thermokarst ponding between 1945 and 2005. In presentation format. -

Remote sensing is used to derive the annual minimum snow and ice extent over the Canadian Arctic landmass from 2000-2016. -
Summary of 2018 Mackenzie Delta Permafrost Field Campaign
This is a study monitoring permafrost thaw due to a warming climate, based around the Beaufort Delta region. -
Pre-Industrial Fire Regimes of the Western Boreal Forest of Canada
This project developed a first approximation summary of the pre-industrial fire regime attributes of the western boreal forest of Canada using the best available knowledge. -
The 2014 NWT Fires – Developing a Research Framework
This report summarizes workshop discussions held in 2015 - research prioritization is discussed after the devastating 2014 forest fires in the NWT. -
Freshwater Seepage Into Sediments of the Shelf, Shelf Edge, and Continental S...
The continental shelf of the Canadian Beaufort Sea is investigated to see if it is causing decomposition of relict offshore subsea permafrost and gas hydrates. -
