Foxes are strongly dependent on dens for parturition and rearing of cubs. Due to the shallow permafrost-free layer in most of the arctic fox’s range, new dens are rarely dug and...

Nest searches are carried out on foot from our main field station since 1989 and from a secondary field camp inside the main goose colony since 1992. Nests are found during...

Over the past decades, observations of buried glacier ice exposed in thaw-slump affected terrain of the Arctic indicate that considerable amounts of Pleistocene glacier ice...

These data were collected as a part of the Slave Province surficial materials and permafrost study (SPSMPS) which took place near the Ekati mine, north of Lac de Gras. Data...

Nests are mainly found through systematic searches of a 4.5 km2 core area near our main field station from early June to early July since 2005. Nests are also found...

While most ecological studies focus on the impact of climate change on some populations or species, broader, ecosystem-based information is needed to better predict the future...

The available dataset is the unique continuous measurement of the air temperature on the summit of Mont Jacques-Cartier (1263 m a.s.l.). This summit represents the highest peak...

Global warming projections still suffer from a limited representation of the permafrost-carbon feedback. Predicting the response of the permafrost temperature to climate changes...

The ice shelves along the northern coast of Ellesmere Island have been in a state of decline since at least the early 20th century. Available data derived from explorers'...

Frozen tundra soils hold one of the Earth’s largest pools of organic carbon. With global warming, permafrost is thawing at an accelerated rate, promoting the formation of...

Thermokarst ponds and lakes are common features of Arctic and subarctic landscapes, developing in depressions that result from the thawing of ice-rich permafrost. Most of these...

Phytoplankton communities in Arctic lakes and fiords are diverse despite oligotrophic conditions. Phytoplankton pigment analyses allow the estimation of the potential primary...

The data are collected from three stations in the Forêt d’enseignement et de recherche de Macpès which is located about 20 km south of the city of Rimouski in Quebec, Canada....

Sustainability of existing infrastructure and new projects in the Arctic rely on a detailed knowledge of the thermal and geotechnical properties of permafrost, which is required...
