Published purpose
This project will investigate how permafrost thaw and different permafrost landforms influence freshwater ecosystem chemistry and function across northwestern Canada. By analyzing water and sediment samples from multiple regions and landform types, it will identify how landscape history drives variation in nutrient cycling, carbon dynamics, and aquatic conditions. This research aims to improve predictions of ecological change, support northern communities’ water security and land use, and refine estimates of carbon emissions under climate warming.
