NWT Environmental Research Bulletin
NWT Environmental Research Bulletins (NERB) are summaries of environmental research in the Northwest Territories. They share key findings with northern residents, decision-makers, and partners.
- All NWT CIMP-funded projects must submit a bulletin.
- Other researchers are encouraged to submit bulletins to make their work accessible.
