Summary: The proposed research program involves terrestrial studies in the Inuvialuit Settlement Area to be conducted during 2002. Initial vegetation investigations were conducted in summer 2001 to classify vegetation along the study corridor. This classification was essentially completed in the Inuvialuit Settlement Area. Vegetation studies during 2002 will focus on locating areas of rare or uncommon pl...

Summary: The research team proposes to collect information about fish habitat features and use on watercourse crossings located within the tentative pipeline corridor in the Inuvialuit Settlement Area. The research team will survey 14 permanent watercourses, as well as several intermittent or seasonal watercourses and approximately 20 lakes located along the study corridor to determine aquatic characteri...

Summary: The research team proposes to collect information about fish habitat features and use on watercourse crossings located within the tentative pipeline corridor in the Gwich'in Settlement Area. All aquatic studies will be conducted by three or four-person crews. Each crew will include a local researcher or Renewable Resource Council (RRC) representative. Depending upon accessibility, sites will b...

Summary: Two individuals from each of the communities of Inuvik, Aklavik, Tsiigehtchic, Fort McPherson, and Tuktoyaktuk will be interviewed about their local knowledge of tundra swan biology. Information collected will educate the researcher about local tundra swan ecology and may help generate questions that are important to communities. Interview methods will follow those used by the Arctic Borderlands E...
