Summary: The objective of these studies is to determine the presence or absence of fish and wildlife in the vicinity of the proposed project area. A literature search for registered archeological sites within the proposed project area is also planned. A literature review will be done to document any existing information on fish populations in the region. A preliminary survey of physical, chemical and biolo...

Principal Investigator: Brotton, Janet
Licensed Year(s): 1993
Summary: The proposed research will investigate the implications of climatic change for fish and wildlife resources in the Mackenzie River Basin. A computer model will be used to predict temperature and precipitation changes associated with an expected doubling of carbon dioxide concentrations. Data points used in the modelling exercise will correspond to selected weather stations in the region. The res...

Principal Investigator: Zallen, Morris
Licensed Year(s): 1987
Summary: To identify key biological resources (principally migratory birds and mammals) and aspects of human land use (communities and settlements, resource harvesting areas) within or adjacent to proposed flight corridors. Potential concerns related to the above will be addressed by assessing the degree of disturbance from noise & emissions from aircraft. This research includes gathering socio-economic ...
