Molecular and otolith tools to investigate population of origin of Arctic cisco
Principal Investigator: Nielsen, Jennifer L.
Licensed Year(s): 2008 2007
Summary: This study aims to: 1) use genetics and otolith (ear bone) microchemistry to determine if differences exist between collections of Arctic cisco (herring) made from tributaries of the Mackenzie River (Canada) and the Colville River (Alaska) and 2) use differences to identify population-of-origin of fish caught in the Colville River subsistence fishery. Approximately 60 Arctic cisco will be colle...

Assessment of lake trout stocks in Great Bear Lake
Principal Investigator: Howland, Kimberly
Licensed Year(s): 2007 2006 2005
Summary: The objectives of this research are: 1) to gather baseline data on size, age structure, fecundity (egg number per female), growth and mortality for lake trout in the study area; 2) to determine if lake trout are genetically distinct between basins of Great Bear Lake; and, 3) to determine the extent of movements by lake trout in Great Bear Lake by using molecular genetics. Field crews will be tr...

Aquatic Studies along the Mackenzie River and its Tributaries
Principal Investigator: Evans, Marlene S.
Licensed Year(s): 2005
Summary: This study is designed to investigate various measures of small fish health at a number of locations along the Mackenzie River. The researchers want to find out if small fish health is different near oil seepages and the islands at Norman Wells than in other parts of the river. Also, the researchers will investigate fish and benthic invertebrate abundance and species composition at selected strea...
