Description: 

The objectives of this report are to 1) understand the spatial extent and distribution of permafrost in the Alberta-Northwest Territories transboundary region, 2) identify areas most vulnerable to gradual permafrost thaw, and 3) review literature of the current state-of-knowledge on potential impacts of permafrost thaw on water quality and quantity in transboundary regions. To support the Bilateral Water Management Agreement (BWMA) signed between the Governments of Alberta (AB) and the Northwest Territories (NT) in 2015, knowledge and data gaps are identified for the transboundary region.

Description: 

The Canadian Heritage Rivers System requires ten-year monitoring reports to assess whether designated rivers continue to meet the criteria for designation as a Canadian Heritage River.  

The first ten-year monitoring report for the Tsiigehnjik/Arctic Red River was published in 2005, and covered the period 1993-2003.

The second ten-year monitoring report for Tsiigehnjik covers the period 2005-2014. This assessment builds on the first ten-year report, and is based on the river’s cultural, recreational, renewable resource, biodiversity and intrinsic value to local Indigenous community members.
