Principal Investigator: Pelletier, Clem
Licensed Year(s): 1994
Summary: In project area streams, fish presence/absence and/or densities will be obtained by electrofishing representative habitat. Benthic invertebrates ans periphyton (stream algae) will be sampled at stream sites to determine seasonal changes in composition, distribution and abundance. Lake fisheries population studies will involve fish trapping. Lake limnology, plankton and benthic invertebrates wil...

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: Sekerak, Aaron D.
Licensed Year(s): 1990
Summary: The Researcher and his assistant will obtain information on fish in the area so that potential impacts of mining in the region can be assessed....
