Temporal trends and spatial variations in persistent organic pollutants and metals in sea-run char from the Canadian Arctic
Principal Investigator: Evans, Marlene S.
Licensed Year(s): 2007 2006
Summary: This study is designed to determine what the levels of contaminants are in char when these fish return from feeding in the ocean in the summer. This is the fourth year of a study investigating the contaminant levels in sea-run Arctic char as they return from feeding in the ocean. The reason this study is being conducted is to provide communities with more information on the chemical levels in t...


Spatial and long-term trends in persistent organic contaminants and metals in lake trout and burbot in Great Slave Lake/Temporal trends and spatial variations in persistent organic pollutants and metals in sea run char from the Canadian Arctic
Principal Investigator: Evans, Marlene S.
Licensed Year(s): 2004
Summary: This study is looking at the contaminant levels in lake trout and burbot in Great Slave Lake and in arctic char after their return from feeding in the ocean. Twenty burbot and twenty lake trout will be collected from the West Basin of Great Slave Lake by...


Banks Island Fish Populations/Char Genetic Variation Project
Principal Investigator: Babaluk, John
Licensed Year(s): 1994 1993
Summary: This is a continuing project to survey fish populations of lakes and rivers. In the past population studies have been conducted in the Fish and Raddi lakes, the Sachs River and the Benard River. This year Middle and Kuptan lakes will be surveyed and if there is time Capron and Swan lakes may also be surveyed. The project will also continue studies on genetic and morphological variation in Arcti...


Contaminant analyses for wildlife food sources in the Inuvialuit Settlement Region
Principal Investigator: Bell, Bob
Licensed Year(s): 1993
Summary: This project was initiated following the concern voiced by the six ISR communities about the presence and levels of contaminants in the major country food sources. Samples of body tissues will be taken from charr, whitefish, seals and belugas in order to assess for heavy metal, organochlorine and PCB contaminants. These samples will be taken while other field research is being conducted by Fishe...


DeSalis River fishery monitoring, 1993
Principal Investigator: Stabler, Matt
Licensed Year(s): 1993
Summary: Anadromous arctic charr, currently viewed of as the eastern form, are known to spawn and overwinter in the DeSalis River system. Residents of Sachs Harbour have expressed an interest in harvesting arctic charr from this system for consumption and commercial purposes. Two resident monitors will sample the subsistence catch of this stock in order to estimate stock size and age. Whole fish will be ...


Enumerate sea-run Arctic Char stocks at the rivers near the head of Prince Albert Sound.
Principal Investigator: Stewart, D. Bruce
Licensed Year(s): 1987
Summary: To assess the commercial fishing potential of rivers near the head of Prince Albert Sound, Victoria Island, NWT, by placing in a live capture weir to count the fish running up Kuuk River, and by tagging and sampling the char. Also gillnet testing will be completed at Nalaogyuk and Kagluk Rivers. A number of fish from each site will be analyzed for pesticide and heavy metals....
