Influence of the Arctic on Mid-latitude Weather and Climate: Observation of Precipitation Particles at Inuvik.
Principal Investigator: Yamashita, Akira
Licensed Year(s): 1995
Summary: The researchers will observe crystal formation from ice fog through the collection of samples for microscopic observation and through the taking of photographs/video of optical phenomena produced by floating ice crystals. Particle counting and cloud condensation nucleus counting at the observation site will also be done....

Implementing the Environmental Assessment Provisions of Comprehensive Aboriginal Land Claim Settlements
Principal Investigator: Keith, Robert
Licensed Year(s): 1994
Summary: The research will consist of the examination of files, minutes and other public records of the Environmental Impact Review Board formed under the Inuvialuit Final Agreement. These records are kept in Inuvik, NWT. The objective of this study is to identify principals and organizational design criteria for the sucessful implementation of the environmental assessment provisions of comprehensive land ...

Pealand-Permafrost Mapping and Environmental Implications.
Principal Investigator: Kettles, Inez
Licensed Year(s): 1994
Summary: The researcher will map the configuration of peat deposits and permafrost within them using geophysical surveys (ground penetrating radar and EM-31). This will involve setting out a traverse line on foot using measuring tape and flagging tape, taking measurements along the traverse line with hand-held equipment and measuring the depth of peat using a probe. The researcher will drive or fly out ...

Western Arctic Women Artists
Principal Investigator: McNeal, Joanne
Licensed Year(s): 1994 1993 1992
Summary: Phase One and Two were completed in 1992 and 1993. Phase 3 (completion) will review previous interviews and additional interviews will be conducted. Current interviews will become part of an international project headed by Dr. Rita Irwin of UBC....

The Role of Traditional Knowledge in Inuvialuit Marine Mammal Management
Principal Investigator: Ris, Mats
Licensed Year(s): 1994
Summary: The purpose of this study is to understand how Inuvialuit traditional knowledge and hunting of marine mammals has influenced the way local and regional management strategies are built up. Secondly, the researcher will make a comparison with other forms of marine mammal harvesting in circumpolar regions. Such a comparison will make it easier to understand the nature of subsistence hunting in the n...

Prescribed Fire and Wildlife Habitat Enhancement
Principal Investigator: De Groot, Bill
Licensed Year(s): 1994
Summary: Plant samples will be collected in the field by the researcher after they become dormat for treatment in a lab experiment. Burning treatments will be conducted in the lab where environmental growing conditions and the plant physiological state at the time of the treatment can be better controled. This will be done in order to model the effects of fire on two types of shrubs....

Forest & Forest Fire Studies in the Mackenzie Delta Ecosystem
Principal Investigator: Wein, Ross
Licensed Year(s): 1994
Summary: Since fire is most wide spread agent of change in the northern forest, society should know how climatic warming will influence the force. The fire history of the Mackenzie Delta Region is known only through fire suppresion records over the past 25 years. Spot checks on the landscape have been made, but no longer record of 5-20 decades is available. Tree ring approaches will be used in this study...

Jack Pine Forest Research
Principal Investigator: Osawa, Akira
Licensed Year(s): 1994
Summary: The researcher will conduct research on jack pine forests along the highways in Wood Buffalo National Park and will also collect stem increment cores from black spruce trees around the latitudinal tree line near Inuvik. This research will consist of remeasurement of permanent plots, foliage distribution and light measurement, establishment of pruning experiment and stem core sampling near Inuvik....

Factors predictive of long-term tenure in the recruitment of nurses for community health centre settings in the NWT
Principal Investigator: Harris, Ronald W.
Licensed Year(s): 1994
Summary: Nurses presently employed in the various health delivery settings across the NWT will be surveyed to identify the factors contributing to longer tenure. Data will be collected and analyzed in order to assess trends and models for recruitment screening and nurse hiring practices will be developed....
