Permafrost is a substantial sink of CO2 and methane, making it significant to the global climate, and release of these greenhouse gases from thawing permafrost is predicted to be similar in magnitude to that caused by land-use change [3]. Further effects of permafrost warming in the Arctic include increased flooding, precipitation, and coastline erosion, already occurring in some regions [2, 4]. ....

The Northern Abandoned Mine Reclamation Program is responsible for the remediation of the eight largest abandoned mine projects in Yukon and the Northwest Territories. While these eight projects have largely been in care, maintenance and remediation planning for several years, a number of projects have achieved important milestones since the Program s launch. ....
