Purpose
At high Canadian latitudes, warming is increasing which is having significant impacts on permafrost stability, disturbance regimes, and vegetation. Despite advancements in carbon observation efforts they remain sparse. This proposal will validate a new modelling framework (CAN-TG) focused on northern Canada ecosystems to predict carbon accumulation and flux. The model is remote sensing focused and will be calibrated and validated using observations from CSA supported missions. The project will advance CSA priorities by providing estimates of carbon flux for national reporting, increase use of data acquired with CSA support and increase the number of scientists with PhDs in Canada.
