Genetic Diversity in the Biota of Arctic Lakes
Principal Investigator: Hebert, Paul
Licensed Year(s): 1997
Summary: Our research will involve the survey of zooplankton communities in lakes and ponds of the Mackenzie Delta area (Inuvialuit private lands). Samples will be collected by either wading in ponds or by towing at net behind a float equipped helicopter. Samples will be frozen in liquid nitrogen, and subsequently examined for genetic variation. Our work aims to establish the species diversity of zoopla...


Biology, ecology and cold tolerance of arctic insects
Principal Investigator: Ring, Richard A.
Licensed Year(s): 1993 1992 1990 1987
Summary: As part of a long term study, I will continue to examine the biology of arctic and subarctic insects. Information will be collected on insect distributions as well as insect adaptations to living in environments with extremely cold winters and short summers. Studies on insect communities in the north may be good indicators of global climate change since they are short-lived species with limited a...


Genetics and postglacial dispersal of lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush) and arctic charr (S. alpinus) in the western arctic
Principal Investigator: Wilson, Chris C.
Licensed Year(s): 1993 1992 1991 1990
Summary: The researcher will be collecting lake trout and/or arctic charr from lakes in the vicinities of Hay River, Inuvik, Paulatuk and Tuktoyaktuk in order to examine the distributions of these species. Samples of liver and muscle tissue will be collected from these fish for genetic analyses: this research will provide information about how different populations are related to each other (i.e., their o...


Licence #5123
Principal Investigator: Norton, Pamela
Licensed Year(s): 1985
Summary: To monitor the white whale migration to and distribution and abundance in the Mackenzie Estuary. Secondary objectives are to observe white whale behaviour, to record whale-vessel interactions (if possible) and to quantify the number of whales missed by observers under normal survey conditions. All marine mammal sightings will be recorded....


Licence #2093
Principal Investigator: Wooley, David R.
Licensed Year(s): 1977
Summary: Aerial survey of the Bluenose Caribou herd to determine winter distribution in the known winter range and the proportion of the herd wintering on the western portion of the range near the proposed route of the gas pipeline between Inuvik and Fort Good Hope....


Licence #1844
Principal Investigator: Rising, J.D.
Licensed Year(s): 1975
Summary: Completion of a continent wide study of geographic variation of the savannah sparrow and a general survey of the distribution and abundance of frogs and toads in the Canadian north....
