Oil Spill Fate, Transport, and Impact in Canadian Arctic Estuary and Shoreline with Case Studies in the Mackenzie River Delta and the Nearshore of the Beaufort Sea
Principal Investigator: Chen, Bing
Licensed Year(s): 2025
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 6156. Project Objectives: • The main objectives are 1) to understand the fate and behaviour of oil spills (fresh, weathered and dispersed) in the Arctic waters (Mackenzie Delta/Estuary on the coastal areas of the Beaufort Sea) with consideration of environmental drivers in the Arctic (e.g., bathymetry, air/water temperatu...


Using computer models to understand what influences mercury levels in the Beaufort Sea Shelf food web
Principal Investigator: Giang, Amanda
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5518. The objectives of this project are to develop and apply a computer model of mercury bioaccumulation in the Beaufort Sea Shelf food web; to estimate the effects of selected environmental changes on historical Beaufort Sea beluga MeHg concentrations from (1970-2010s); and, to investigate potential future trajectories of...


Biogeochemistry of Lakes in the Mackenzie Delta
Principal Investigator: Lesack, Lance
Licensed Year(s): 2017 2016 2015 2014 2010 2009 2007 2006 2005 2004 2003 2002 2001 2000 1999 1998 1997 1996 1995 1994 1993
Summary: The long term goal of this research is to develop a biogeochemical model for lakes in the Mackenzie Delta and a model for assessing the effects of stresses on rivers resulting from global change. This is year 13 of a 20 year program. Specific goals for this field season include: 1) investigating the sources and fates of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) in aquatic food webs of the Mackenzie Delta; 2)...
