| Water, mud, and bubbles: Impacts of permafrost degradation on greenhouse gas emissions from Arctic ponds and lakes | 12-14-2015 |
Carbon cycle dynamics in response to permafrost degradation is a ‘hot topic’ in northern research. |
| The Nunavut Regional Adaptation Collaborative | 02-17-2012 |
A territory-wide program focusing on advancing climate change adaptation knowledge and decision-making on resource development in Nunavut. |
| Pan-Territorial Adaptation Initiatives | 02-17-2012 |
Addressing climate change and identifying approaches for supporting current and future climate change adaptation projects across the Canadian Arctic. |
| Nunavut Permafrost Monitoring Network | 02-07-2012 |
A multi-community project studying the changing conditions of frozen ground to depths of 15 metres. |
| Northern Infrastructure Standardization Initiative | 10-07-2019 |

| Incorporating Climate Change into Land Development | 08-31-2016 |
The Nunavut Climate Change Centre is devoted to including Nunavut communities in their projects and outreach. Over the last few years, we have had |
| How to evaluate climate change adaptation in permafrost environment: A pilot study in Arviat, Nunavut | 07-06-2016 |
Why was this project important? |
| How to evaluate climate change adaptation in a permafrost environment: A pilot study in Arviat, Nunavut | 10-04-2016 |
This research created a community-based evaluation framework to monitor and evaluate adaptation projects. Evaluating these projects can help us to learn from and improve projects. The framework was tested in Arviat on the ‘Terrain Analysis in Nunavut’ project, a Government of Nunavut project using satellite radar images to see if the ground is moving to detect permafrost degradation. |
| Evaluation Adaptation to Climate Change in Nunavut, Canada | 04-28-2015 |
This three part project started in fall 2014 assesses the current state of government-driven adaptation in Nunavut, including linkages, barriers, a |
| Community adaptation in a changing Arctic | 04-09-2013 |
Communities across the Canadian Arctic are exposed and sensitive to changes in social, political, cultural environmental and economic |
