The ecology and paleoecology of benthic macroinvertebrates in the Mackenzie Delta region
Principal Investigator: Quinlan, Roberto
Licensed Year(s): 2017 2016 2015 2014 2013
Summary: This study will examine the effects of permafrost and flooding on the ecological structure and carbon exchange of contrasting lakes in the Mackenzie River Delta. Patterned ground marked by ice-wedge polygons is formed by freezing and thawing of the soil, which forms cracks into which ice can spread and cause the soil to uplift. These processes have effects on the hydrology and water chemistry of a...

Summary: The objectives of this program are; 1) to characterize baseline water and benthic invertebrate conditions in three experimental lakes in and near the Kendall Island Bird Sanctuary and two Mackenzie Gas Project Taglu and Niglintgak Anchor Sites, and one o...


The Effects of 24-Hour Daylight on Patterns of Diurnal Vertical Migration in Freshwater Epipelic Algae.
Principal Investigator: Hebben, Thorsten
Licensed Year(s): 1999
Summary: The objective of this study is to examine the migratory habits of epipelic algae in 10 small, shallow bodies of water in the region of the arctic circle. A 3/4 ton 4x4 pickup truck will be used to travel to each of ten ponds located 6 km north of Inuvik, N.W.T. The ponds will be sampled over a period of 2 days each between July 6 and July 20, 1999, using a technique perfected during the summer o...
