The proposed research is a critical step in our long-term research program to provide new insight and quantification of the effects of climate change on the groundwater and surface water of Canada's subarctic regions. The overall long-term focus is on quantifying the hydrologic, geotechnical, and biogeochemical response of wetland-dominated discontinuous permafrost to atmospheric temperature and solar variations. Specifically, for this CRD project, large-scale experiments on peat samples from the central Mackenzie River basin will be coupled with on-going field studies to better elucidate active layer moisture transport processes.

拟议的研究是我们长期研究计划的关键一步，为气候变化对加拿大亚北极地区地下水和地表水的影响提供新的见解和量化。整体长期的重点是量化的水文，岩土工程和湿地为主的不连续多年冻土层的地球化学响应大气温度和太阳能的变化。 具体而言，对于这个CRD项目，从中央麦肯齐河流域的泥炭样品的大规模实验将与正在进行的实地研究，以更好地阐明活跃层水分输送过程。
