Canadian scientists are on edge about Arctic research funding
After a decade of support, Canadian funding for Arctic research has flatlined. Researchers hope the federal budget released next week will change that.
Jennifer Provencher’s Instagram feed is flooded with images of snowy glacier-shaped landscapes, small propeller planes, seal skins and seabird eggs. A postdoctoral fellow at Acadia University in Wolfville, Nova Scotia, Provencher flies throughout the Canadian Arctic working with northern hunters and fishers to study the many ways human activities are affecting Arctic marine ecosystems, including seabirds, fish, seals and other animals.
