Dolly Varden Char Assessment in the Peel Plateau
Principal Investigator: Maier, Kris
Licensed Year(s): 2011
Summary: The objectives of this research project are: 1) to re-assess the anadromous component of the known Vittrekwa River Dolly Varden char population; 2) to investigate & assess other potential suitable Dolly Varden habitat; and 3) to confirm the presence of Dolly Varden char in the Stony Creek watershed. For the Vittrekwa River the research team plans to construct a fixed weir which will trap se...


Genetics and postglacial dispersal of lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush) and arctic charr (S. alpinus) in the western arctic
Principal Investigator: Wilson, Chris C.
Licensed Year(s): 1993 1992 1991 1990
Summary: The researcher will be collecting lake trout and/or arctic charr from lakes in the vicinities of Hay River, Inuvik, Paulatuk and Tuktoyaktuk in order to examine the distributions of these species. Samples of liver and muscle tissue will be collected from these fish for genetic analyses: this research will provide information about how different populations are related to each other (i.e., their o...


Distribution, movements and relative abundance of dolly varden charr at the Big Fish River, NWT
Principal Investigator: Harwood, Lois
Licensed Year(s): 1993
Summary: This project will involve tagging charr and monitoring their movements. The fish will be tagged at the overwintering site in spring, before they start to migrate downstream. The fish with radio tags will be tracked every 4-6 weeks throughout the spring, summer and fall. Fish caught by the summer fishery at Shingle Point and having floy tags will be recorded. 100 charr each (mostly females) wil...


Monitoring dolly varden charr taken in domestic fishery by residents of Aklavik, NWT
Principal Investigator: Harwood, Lois
Licensed Year(s): 1993
Summary: In 1992, most charr fishing by Aklavik residents took place at Shingle Point and the town site in Aklavik (similar to fishing during the 1987-1991 closure). In this first year of the monitoring program, information will be collected on the total number of charr caught, harvest locations and characteristics of tagged fish....


North Slope Char Summer Ecology Project
Principal Investigator: Sandstrom, Steve
Licensed Year(s): 1990
Summary: The Fieldwork will involve removing fish from selected pools by a number of methods including electroshocking, seine and angling. They will be anaesthetized, weighed, measured and tagged. The researcher estimates that no more than 5% of the total catch will be dead sampled....


Licence #4077
Principal Investigator: Elmgren, Lindsay D.
Licensed Year(s): 1984
Summary: Trapping of arctic char in order to assess the natural carrier state of infectious pancreatic necrosis virus; possible effects the virus may have on arctic char and other salmonid species will be studied. The arctic char virus will also be compared to other IPN viruses....
