The 2018 NWT Water Stewardship Strategy is a long-term, made-in-the-North plan to guide water stewardship.

We monitored all aspects of water at sites along the Inuvik (Inuuvik) – Tuktoyaktuk (Tuktuujaqrtuuq) Highway (ITH), including two streams in the area.

This bulletin outlines a research project to monitor all aspects of water at sites along the Inuvik (Inuuvik)– Tuktoyaktuk Highway (ITH), including two streams in the area.

Wilfrid Laurier University researchers created and tested a new method to map land cover types – such as forests, bogs and fens – in the headwaters of the Scotty Creek basin.

This report summarizes a workshop held in Fort Simpson (Łı́ı́dlı̨ Kų́ę́) in 2016. Environmental research and monitoring results in the Dehcho region were shared and discussed.

This report, published every four years, provides information on the state and trends of the environment in the NWT, organized over various environmental topics.

This compendium addendum provides a summary of the most significant academic literature about climate change in the NWT, that has been produced through fieldwork in the NWT.

Each hour-long webinar features presentations from leading researchers and community members, providing a comprehensive exploration of northern research topics.

We present a unique thirteen-year record (2003–16) of the physiochemical properties of two High Arctic lakes and show that water quality has significantly changed.

This report focuses on climate change impacts and adaptation issues of national importance or that are best understood through an integrated, pan-Canadian perspective.

This study developed and applied a framework for assessing the vulnerability of pan-Canadian water resources to permafrost thaw.

This study documents the rapid restructuring of algal community composition ca 2000 CE that is consistent with recent climate change impacts in the region.

We collected water and bug samples at 36 sites in the Stony Creek watershed in the Gwich’in Settlement Area to test if thaw slumps affect macroinvertebrates in streams.

Meteorological data used to determine trends and changes in autumn rainfall and winter air temperatures over a 37-year record, and streamflow was used to calculate the total...

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 project examined the effect of peatland permafrost thaw on water availability and quality in the Dehcho region.

This study looked at how increasing water temperatures and permafrost thaw will affect fish and what they eat, such as bugs (macroinvertebrates) and waterfleas (zooplankton).

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