Assessing the potential for geotextiles to be a source of microplastics to Arctic aquatic environments
chercheur principal: Bourdages, Madelaine
Année(s) de permis: 2021
Résumé: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.4999. The first objective of this project is to determine whether geotextiles used in bank stability, such as those used along the ITH, are a source of microplastics to Arctic aquatic environments. The second objective is to determine whether terrestrial soils located directly downstream of geotextiles which flood during an...


Aquatic Baseline Studies in Support of Mackenzie Valley Highway
chercheur principal: Chiperzak, Doug
Année(s) de permis: 2020
Résumé: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.4822. The goal is to collect baseline fish and fish habitat data for two sections of the proposed Mackenzie Valley Highway; Prohibition Creek Access Road (PCAR) and Mount Gadet Access Road (MGAR). Data collected will support engineering design and regulatory process to construct these segments of the highway. A desktop s...


Ekati Engineering and Environmental Monitoring Programs
chercheur principal: Pacholski, Laura J
Année(s) de permis: 2020
Résumé: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.4671. The main objectives of the field work for 2020 will be: 1) to determine if the Ekati Diamond Mine is having an effect on the surrounding aquatic environment, wildlife, and air quality; and 2) to provide baseline data for areas where mine development may occur in the future. In winter, water samples will be collect...


Defining the biothermal envelope of Dolly Varden in the Canadian Western Arctic to inform conservation planning.
chercheur principal: Mochnacz, Neil
Année(s) de permis: 2019
Résumé: The first phase of this field program was implemented in 2018, where approximately twenty loggers were deployed and retrieved. A minimum sample size of seventy is required to build a robust stream temperature model. The research team propose to deploy July 14-15 and retrieve August 29-30 the remaining temperature loggers (n = 50) across the Fish Creek watershed. This data will be used to develop a...


Edzo Water Intake - Aquatic Assessment
chercheur principal: Lavictoire, Michelle L
Année(s) de permis: 2014
Résumé: To gather site specific information and habitat description at and near the existing water intake in order to complete an impact assessment for proposed in-water works (described in the rationale) Site investigations would include habitat mapping and fish community sampling. The research team are assuming the fish community information will be required as it is understood at this time that no s...


EKATI Aquatic Monitoring Program, 2009-2013
chercheur principal: Robb, Tonia L
Année(s) de permis: 2013 2012 2011 2010 2009 2008 2007 2006 2005 2004 2003
Résumé: The main objectives of the field work for 2009 to 2013 will be to determine if the EKATI mine is having an effect on the surrounding aquatic environment and air quality to provide baseline data for areas where mine development may occur in the future. In winter, water samples will be collected under ice using a 5L Niskin (a cylindrical PVC water sampler). During the week of spring freshet, hy...


NTPC Bluefish Hydro Repairs
chercheur principal: Panayi, Damian
Année(s) de permis: 2018 2017 2016 2015 2014 2013 2012 2011 2010
Résumé: The objective is to describe the terrestrial and aquatic environment in the Yellowknife River between Prosperous Lake and Bluefish Lake. This may include investigating vegetation, water quality, benthic invertebrate populations, and fish. The results will be used to determine the most suitable means of fish habitat compensation, to guide mitigation during construction of the new dam for Bluefish H...


A phylogenetic and phylogeographic study of predaceous diving beetles in the Nearctic with a focus on the tribe Agabini (Coleoptera, Dytiscidae, Colymbetinae).
chercheur principal: Venables, Chandra
Année(s) de permis: 2011
Résumé: The objectives of this research project are to: 1) establish evolutionary relationships of diving beetles in the Nearctic, in addition to identifying colonization routes for exemplars in the tribe Agabini; 2) assess genetic diversity of target species and among-population genetic mixing, and compare these data to historical data (where possible) with an aim at assessing latitudinal and historica...


2008-2010 Baseline Studies for Avalon Ventures Ltd. Proposed Thor Lake Rare Earth Metals Project - Aquatics Component
chercheur principal: Lawson, Nick
Année(s) de permis: 2012 2011 2010 2009 2008
Résumé: The objectives of this project are to characterize the baseline water and sediment quality within the Thor Lake area, and to characterize the baseline aquatic community through the collection of phytoplankton, zooplankton and benthic invertebrates. Water, sediment and aquatic organisms will be collected from 20 stations within the Thor Lake area. Most stations will be accessed by ATV and/or bo...


Canadian Zinc Corporation – Habitat Compensation Investigation
chercheur principal: Hamilton, David
Année(s) de permis: 2009
Résumé: Several stream crossings along the #1 and #7 highways are expected to be suitable candidates for habitat compensation. Aquatic habitat assessments and fish collections at selected stream crossings need to be conducted to confirm fish species presence or absence upstream and downstream of the crossings, to assess habitat conditions and to evaluate fish passage to assist in the development of a fis...
