Estimating Aquatic Species Physiological Limits (ASPL) through a Forage Fish Monitoring and Observation (FFMO) program in the Inuvialuit Settlement Region (ISR)
Principal Investigator: Steiner, Nadja
Licensed Year(s): 2021 2019
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.4554. The 3 year project objective is to conduct underwater eco-physiological monitoring in remote Inuvialuit coastal areas in both summer and winter seasons. This will result in critical benchmark data with emphasis on coastal forage fish species during rapid climate change. Another project off-shoot will be a self-suffici...


Effects of climate change on coastal geomorphology and benthic biotic communities, southwestern Banks Island
Principal Investigator: Edinger, Evan N
Licensed Year(s): 2005
Summary: Climate change is affecting coastlines and coastal communities across Arctic Canada. Communities in the Western Arctic, including Sachs Harbour, have described a variety of effects, including warmer temperatures, reduced sea ice thickness, longer duration of open water in summer, increased wave activity, and new or early arrivals of migratory animals. These effects can have a variety of impacts ...


Banks Island Fish Populations/Char Genetic Variation Project
Principal Investigator: Babaluk, John
Licensed Year(s): 1994 1993
Summary: This is a continuing project to survey fish populations of lakes and rivers. In the past population studies have been conducted in the Fish and Raddi lakes, the Sachs River and the Benard River. This year Middle and Kuptan lakes will be surveyed and if there is time Capron and Swan lakes may also be surveyed. The project will also continue studies on genetic and morphological variation in Arcti...


Turbot Fishery Exploratory
Principal Investigator: Chiperzak, Doug
Licensed Year(s): 1993
Summary: The potential of marine fisheries stocks in the Beaufort Sea to support commercial fisheries is unknown at present. I propose to develop the local expertise to conduct offshore winter fisheries for greenland halibut (turbot) using long-line techniques, and to assess the potential of any stocks present to support a commercial fishery. Data will be collected to assess stock characteristics pertine...
