Stock Delineation of Fish Species in the Mackenzie River
Principal Investigator: Millar, Nathan P
Licensed Year(s): 2006
Summary: This study involves the determination of the population structure of fish in the Mackenzie River. Specific objectives include the delineation of stocks of three fish species: loche (Lota lota), crookedback (Coregonus clupeaformis) and coney (Stenodus leucicthys), and the identification of downstream fisheries as mixed-stock or single-stock fisheries. A population genetics approach will be employed...


Phylogeography and Genetic Population Structure of Broad Whitefish (Coregonus nasus) in the Mackenzie Delta and River and Surrounding Area, Northwest Territories
Principal Investigator: Harris, Les
Licensed Year(s): 2005
Summary: The objective of this study is to establish a baseline collection of tissue and fin samples from broad whitefish that will eventually be used for phylogeographic analysis and the classification of their genetic population structure. Local Gwich’in and Inuvialuit fishermen will be asked, on a volunteer-only basis, to collect fins or tissue samples from broad whitefish caught during the subsisten...


Vegetation Survey for the Ikhil Gas Development
Principal Investigator: Sutor, Greg
Licensed Year(s): 1997
Summary: Vegetation communities along the pipeline route and over other parts of the Project area would be provisionally mapped from aerial photographs. A field survey would be undertaken with an emphasis on identifying rare plants. The study area is in the Caribou Hills IBP site 4-9, which was in part proposed because of its rare flora. July is an optimum time for a single survey. Also transect sampling ...


Yukon North Slope charr tagging project
Principal Investigator: Stabler, Matt
Licensed Year(s): 1993
Summary: Dolly varden charr that use the Babbage, Firth, Big Fish and Rat Rivers spend the summer months in the estuary off of the Yukon North Slope. It is not yet known to what extent charr from each of these rivers mix while they are together during the summer. The researchers will be at King Point during the course of other duties and will catch and radio tag ten charr in order to monitor the fish's m...


Broad Whitefish Pilot Tagging Project
Principal Investigator: Babaluk, John
Licensed Year(s): 1993 1992
Summary: The researchers will assess the feasibility of tagging large numbers of broad whitefish in the Mackenzie River Delta. Various fishing gear will be tested to evaluate effectiveness for capture and release of fish. The tagging program may be used to train local natives in tagging methods and techniques. Recovery of tagged fish and/or tags will be effected through active recovery from Inuvialuit f...
