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...

From 2010-2014, we sampled the physical habitat and benthic invertebrates (bugs) in the Peel Plateau to assess how permafrost thaw slumps impact stream health.
