An interdisciplinary approach to monitoring the hydroecology of thermokarst lakes in Old Crow Flats, Yukon Territory, Canada
(University of Waterloo, 2012-09-28)Lake-rich thermokarst landscapes, such as Old Crow Flats (OCF) in northern Yukon, Canada have been identified as amongst the most vulnerable to climate change. This has raised concerns of the Vuntut Gwitchin First Nation ... -
Isotope hydrology and paleohydrology of the Slave River Delta, NWT
(University of Waterloo, 2010-08-30)Water isotope tracers and multi-proxy paleolimnological approaches are used to characterize the present and past hydrology of the Slave River Delta (SRD), NWT. This research addresses crucial gaps in knowledge about the ... -
Stable isotope mass balance of the North American Laurentian Great Lakes
(University of Waterloo, 2011-09-29)This thesis describes a method for calculating lake evaporation as a proportion of water inputs (E/I) for large surface water bodies, using stable isotope ratios of oxygen (18O/16O) and hydrogen (2H/1H) in water. Evaporation ...
