This report provides regional perspectives on how climate change is impacting our communities, environment and economy, and how we are adapting. This chapter discusses climate change impacts and approaches to adaptation across Northern Canada.

The Northern Climate ExChange and the University of Saskatchewan are working with the Jean Marie River First Nation and Vuntut Gwitchin First Nation to make climate change research relevant to northern Indigenous adaptation planning. The communities…

Concurrent with climate change impacts are community responses to them. Management of energy resources, with a focus on conservation and the development of renewable energy, is one way in which northern peoples are responding to climate change—the…

Yukon Government’s Emergency Measures Organization (EMO), with funding from the Federal National Disaster Mitigation Program, has approached the Northern Climate ExChange (NCE), part of the Yukon Research Centre at Yukon College, as a partner to…

The Northern Climate ExChange (NCE) has developed a two-day climate change course for training Government of Nunavut (GN) employees. The course has been delivered in Iqaluit to GN staff, ensuring that they are aware of climate change impacts and…

This report presents the results of a project that aims to understand and, if possible, recommend actions to remediate the issues caused by the formation of sinkholes at km 82 and km 102-103 of the Dempster Highway. At km 82, this has resulted in…

"The goal of the project was to identify and understand the snow- and permafrost-related information needs of practitioners in the mining and transportation sectors in northern Canada, specifically in Yukon and the Northwest Territories, and to…

"There are more and more researchers in the North who want their work to benefit northerners, and wonder if their results are relevant to the communities they work near or with. With the impacts of climate change being felt by those who live in…

This is a summary version of the "Compendium of Yukon Climate Change Science".

This study was carried out for the Yukon Energy Corporation (YEC) to understand the hydrological role of glaciers, and their future potential response to climate change, in the Upper Yukon River Basin above Whitehorse.

"Northern Canadian communities are at the forefront of climate change. Permafrost thaw is one of the major threats that they face. Many communities, particularly those within the discontinuous permafrost zone, have ground temperatures just…

This project is focused on supporting infrastructure maintenance and construction for the development of the Arctic and the well-being of communities who live on the land, while making high-level scientific contributions to permafrost science and…

Throughout northern Canada, a variety of documents speaking to climate change adaptation have been published. These range from peer review articles over presentations, websites, and reports to online tools. This project represents an effort to tie…
