Summary:
This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5930.
This project proposes to evaluate responses of aquatic ecosystems to permafrost thaw, lake drying, and wildfire, as well as their cumulative impacts. Lake chemistry and biological diversity (microbes and invertebrates) in water (current environmental change) and in sediments (historical change) will be characterized,...

20172016 Summary:
This project will determine what information Regulators require about cumulative effects or conditions in order to make informed decisions regarding development impacts to water quality in the NWT, and whether and how that information is, or can be, provided through NWT Cumulative Impacts Monitoring Program (CIMP) or other agencies responsible for monitoring.
The objectives are as follows:
1)...

Objective 1: Build a partnership between government, communities, regulators and researchers to develop a watershed-based cumulative impact study in areas of oil and gas exploration in the Sahtu region.
The Sahtu Renewable Resource Board (SRRB) can play an important coordinating role in bringing partners together and working with the communities to determine appropriate engagement in the projec...

The objective of this project is to conduct ongoing monitoring and assessment programs, including areas in the Mackenzie River Special Management Zone (SMZ), for surface water.
Surface water samples will be collected from selected lakes, ponds, rivers, and streams. Selected water bodies in EL470 have already undergone bathymetric assessment and sampling.
ConocoPhillips will communicate, in ...

Summary:
The Permanent Monitoring Plots will provide experimental data on forest growth and progression, cumulative impact monitoring, and will provide data for territorial and national reporting requirements.
Most plots will be accessed only by helicopter. At each site, a 400 square metre plot (11.28 m radius) will be established with rebar as a centre post. All trees, shrubs and other vegetation will...

Summary:
This 5-day sampling program will involve fisheries, aquatic, and vegetation studies at/in the vicinity of the abandoned Port Radium Mine site. Concentrations of five biologically significant metals (antimony, arsenic, lead, nickel and zinc) will be dete...

Summary:
The research team proposes to collect information about fish habitat features and use on watercourse crossings located on Crown Land along the tentative pipeline corridor in the Sahtu Settlement Area. The amount of work to be completed at each watercourse crossing will be determined during the reconnaissance level survey and will largely be driven by their size and flow characteristics. Smaller ...
