Determination of PBDEs in Canadian North Landfill Leachate and Soils
Principal Investigator: Danon-Schaffer, Monica N
Licensed Year(s): 2006
Summary: Given the threats of polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) and their widespread appearance in marine mammals and far northern communities, identifying the sources of these compounds and of various PBDE congeners in air, water and soil are of utmost importance. Potential ecological and human health risks, and increasing concentrations of PBDEs in the environment require early implementation of con...

Inuvik Dumpsite Fire
Principal Investigator: Katz, Sharon
Licensed Year(s): 2006
Summary: This project aims to address a local concern about the release of contaminants resulting from an enduring fire at the Inuvik dumpsite by complementing the monitoring of Inuvik’s dumpsite for non-standard contaminants, and by reaffirming the drainage pathways from the dumpsite. Water samples (40-80 l) will be collected from two streams that clear the melt water from the dumpsite area, and the t...
