Linking Neurochemistry to Contaminant Exposure in Belugas of the Mackenzie Delta
Principal Investigator: Ostertag, Sonja K
Licensed Year(s): 2010 2008 2006
Summary: The objectives of this study are to collect brain samples from beluga whales harvested in the ISR for contaminant and brain analyses. The researcher will establish whether a link exists between contaminant exposure and brain chemistry. This information is important for understanding whether contaminants are affecting beluga health. Sampling will take place for four to six weeks at Hendrickson...

Investigation of the nervous and immune systems in the beluga
Principal Investigator: Romano, Tracy
Licensed Year(s): 1993
Summary: This research will examine the nervous (i.e., brain) and immune systems of beluga by collecting these tissues from harvested animals for laboratory analyses. This study will help to determine how contaminants affect the health of belugas. In addition, the data collected may lead to a better understanding of why whales strand themselves on the shoreline as it has been suggested that beached whale...

Beluga Whale Harvest Monitoring Program
Principal Investigator: Stabler, Matt
Licensed Year(s): 1993
Summary: The Beluga Harvest Monitoring Program is an on-going program conducted by the Fisheries Joint Management Secretariat that involves the monitoring of the beluga harvest in the Inuvialuit Settlement Region. Data and samples are collected from harvested whales in order to assess contaminant levels as well as population and reproductive parameters....
