Hydrometric Network Operation
Indian and Northern Affairs Canada (Whitehorse)
3 Nested hydrometric stations (14.5, 71, 195 km²) are operated on Wolf Creek at the Alaska Highway, at the outlet of Coal Lake and in upper Wolf Creek as well as the Granger Basin tributary station (4.3 km²). These stations run year round.

Meteorological Network Operation
Indian and Northern Affairs Canada (Whitehorse), Environment Canada (National Hydrology Research Centre-Saskatoon)
Meteorological stations were established in each of the three major ecosystems (forest, taiga, alpine). Monitored parameters include: air temperature, rainfall, snowfall, wind speed, humidity, incoming and outgoing short-wave radiation, net radiation, barometric pressure, snow depth, blowing snow transport, soil moisture, soil temperature and soil heat flux.

Yukon Component of the Canadian GEWEX Enhanced Study (CAGES)
Environment Canada (Atmospheric Environment Branch, Edmonton)
Climate stations have been installed at Wolf Creek (taiga ecozone) and at MacMillan Pass to produce a more comprehensive data set for the process study of atmospheric vapour, precipitation, snowcover, radiation, snowmelt, evaporation and stream discharge. This information contributes to the MAGS (Mackenzie GEWEX Study) study that is the Canadian contribution to GEWEX (Global Energy and Water Cycle Experiment).

Partitioning of Energy and Water in Boreal and Alpine Ecosystems
Environment Canada (National Hydrology Research Centre - Saskatoon)
Energy and water balance studies help to characterise the evaporation loss and climate of the basin as affected by its vegetation cover. These studies help to determine the role of northern vegetation in controlling hydrology and climate and the sensitivity of northern basins to disturbance from forest clearing and climate change.

Parameterization of Evapotranspiration Using Remotely Sensed Data
Environment Canada (National Hydrology Research Centre - Saskatoon)
Arctic/alpine environments are known for low evapotranspiration rates. Vapour transfer characteristics, soil heat storage relationships, radiation balance and surface temperature relationships have been developed for ecosystem meteorological stations and aggregated over the watershed using remotely sensed data.
