Spatial and long-term trends in persistent organic contaminants and metals in fish from the Northwest Territories
Principal Investigator: Evans, Marlene S.
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2020 2019
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 6000. The study is continuing to investigate whether contaminant (mercury, other metals, persistent organic contaminants) levels are changing in fish in the Northwest Territories with a focus on Great Slave Lake which the team have been studying since the early 1990s. The plan is to arrange collections of lake trout from t...


A Dialouge for Designing a Sustainable Future for the Great Slave Lake Fishery
Principal Investigator: Palsson, Solmundur Karl
Licensed Year(s): 2023
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5329. Our objectives on Great Slave Lake are to understand the current governance framework around the fishery in Great Slave Lake (GSL), its benefits, its distribution, and the historical trends; and, to identify commonalities and differences among rights holders, actors and organizations involved in the fishery. Togeth...


Sources and fate of microplastics in Great Slave Lake
Principal Investigator: Bourdages, Madelaine
Licensed Year(s): 2022 2021
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5224. The first objective of this project is to quantify microplastic concentration and composition in water, sediment, zooplankton, and air around Great Slave Lake. The second objective of this project is to examine if microplastic concentrations are greater near communities than the open water of Great Slave Lake. The thi...


Morphological Diversity of Lake Trout: Differentiation Between Deep and Shallow Forms
Principal Investigator: Eshenroder, Randy
Licensed Year(s): 2005
Summary: The objective of this study is to determine whether a deep-water type of lake trout resembling the “humper” of Lake Superior lives on offshore reefs in Great Slave Lake, as they do in Lake Superior. The researchers have also found humper-like trout in Great Bear Lake and in Lake Mistassini, Quebec. In Great Slave Lake, the researchers intend to target offshore reefs surrounded by deep water (deepe...


Spatial and long-term trends in persistent organic contaminants and metals in lake trout and burbot in Great Slave Lake/Temporal trends and spatial variations in persistent organic pollutants and metals in sea run char from the Canadian Arctic
Principal Investigator: Evans, Marlene S.
Licensed Year(s): 2004
Summary: This study is looking at the contaminant levels in lake trout and burbot in Great Slave Lake and in arctic char after their return from feeding in the ocean. Twenty burbot and twenty lake trout will be collected from the West Basin of Great Slave Lake by...
