Testing Fish Deterrents for Use Under-Ice in the Mackenzie Delta Area
Principal Investigator: Hannay, David
Licensed Year(s): 2003
Summary: This study is designed to assess the reaction of 4 northern freshwater fish species (Lake trout, Northern Pike, Lake whitefish and Inconnu) to underwater sound and light. Sound signals and strobe lights are commonly used to keep fish away from locations...


Responses of marine mammals to vessel noise
Principal Investigator: Cosens, Susan
Licensed Year(s): 1993 1992
Summary: In this final year of the study, the researcher will be testing the responses of beluga whales to previously recorded underwater (background) and boat noise. The whales' behaviour to the recorded noises will be measured as a way to determine if belugas alter their behaviour to boat traffic....


Assessment of potential masking of marine mammal sounds by ship noise
Principal Investigator: Cosens, Susan
Licensed Year(s): 1993 1992 1991 1990
Summary: In this final year of study, the researcher will be recording whale sounds as well as `normal' underwater sounds (background noise) and underwater sounds that boats make. The purpose of this research is to determine whether the sounds of boats interfere with the communication that occurs between beluga. The field crew will camp at Cape Lambton and make day trips to the recording sites out on the...


Site Tenacity of Bowhead Whales and their Vulnerability to Displacement by Disturbance
Principal Investigator: Cosens, Susan
Licensed Year(s): 1990
Summary: The Researcher and team will apply new tag technology and DNA analysis to a study of site tenacity and industrial disturbance of bowhead whales. They will test the feasibility of using sonic tags to track bowheads underwater and will be testing sampling methods for collecting skin from live whales for DNA analysis....


Re-evaluation of Disturbance Experiments in the Lower Mackenzie Region, NWT
Principal Investigator: Wein, Ross
Licensed Year(s): 1993 1992 1989 1988 1987
Summary: In the early 1970's, several test plots were established to see what happens when the plants and soil are disturbed or removed by fire, oil spills, and vehicles. Dr. Wein and two students will be re-visiting these sites to document how the plants have recovered since that time....


Licence #2604
Principal Investigator: Richardson, W. John
Licensed Year(s): 1980
Summary: Four Basic Objectives: a) To document the normal behaviour patterns of the bowhead whale; b) Determine type and quantity of responses if any, of bowheads to boats and aircraft passing at various distances; c) Determine the type and quantity of responses if any, of bowheads to underwater playbacks of recorded industrial noises; d) Dete...


Licence #2583
Principal Investigator: Hobbs, Larry
Licensed Year(s): 1980
Summary: To develop a capability to track and tag large cetaceans (whales). This capability will allow for tracking of these mammals in order to better understand their behaviour and to assess possible impacts of oil and gas developments on them....


Licence #2170
Principal Investigator: Smith, D.W.
Licensed Year(s): 1977
Summary: To conduct an assessment of biological changes to the terrain as a result of disturbances caused by drilling projects....
