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.

This is a followup workshop to the 2015 gathering on forest fire research priorities. Here, results of several major projects are reviewed and next steps determined.

This report summarizes workshop discussions held in 2015 - research prioritization is discussed after the devastating 2014 forest fires in the NWT.

Boreal caribou and vegetation monitoring in areas of recent wildfire burn, in addition to Indigenous Knowledge, were used to determine impacts of wildfire on boreal caribou.

This study investigated whether metals, such as mercury released by fires, were washed into or settled on lakes and wetlands.

ECCC has been working with community members to study the water quality of important wetland ecosystems in the Ts’ude Niline Tuyeta protected area.

This study investigated how quickly vegetation regrew following the 2014 fire season to learn the impacts of extreme fires on caribou habitat.

Modelling was performed to forecast the consequences of oil/gas development, mining, transportation, fire, climate change, and permafrost on the Sahtú landscape.

This research looked at the impact of forest fires and warming temperatures on small lakes and ponds in the NWT.

This project looked at how wildfire and permafrost thaw are impacting the recovery of vegetation important to boreal caribou in southern NWT.

This study examined the impacts of forest fires on the recovery of boreal caribou habitat.

This compendium addendum provides a summary of the most significant academic literature about climate change in the NWT, that has been published by Wilfrid Laurier University...

This chapter of the Regional Perspectives Report outlines climate change impacts being observed to ecosystems and people in northern Canada.
