Alberta-Northwest Territories Transboundary Fish Monitoring Program: Slave River
Principal Investigator: Cunada, Christopher
Licensed Year(s): 2023 2021
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5339. The objectives of this project are to collect additional samples for fish health and fish contaminant levels, and to track their status over time to assess ecosystem health and provide an indication of change or stress in the environment. The research team will be sampling the same species of fish that were investi...

Fish Health Study In the Slave River and the Slave River Delta
Principal Investigator: Jones, Paul D
Licensed Year(s): 2013 2012 2011
Summary: The objective of the project is to study the health of the fish in the Slave River and at the Slave River Delta. A number of different fish species will be collected to study metals, organic contaminants, gene expression and histology. The study focuses on the potential stresses that fish in the region are exposed to, by analyzing gene expression (Ribonucleic acid – RNA), metals, and organic co...

Basin-Wide Fall Burbot Collection
Principal Investigator: Bong, Tom D.
Licensed Year(s): 1994
Summary: The researcher will collect fish for analyses of contaminant body burdens. The sample size for each species will be 10-15 of each sex at each sampling site. Fish will be collected using set lines set in the evening and fished overnight. Blood samples will be taken from live fish and then tissues will be sampled and sent to labs for analyses. Gut contents will be examined and the fish will be aged....

Mackenzie River Watershed Survey of Fish Harvesters
Principal Investigator: Little, Lois M.
Licensed Year(s): 1988
Summary: The Dene Nation asked the Department of Indian and Northern Affairs to conduct a survey about fish caught in the Mackenzie Valley. Lutra Assoc. will be training someone in each community to ask questions like this: How many fish are not normal and why? Where are these caught? How much fish are people eating? Is this changing because more abnormal fish are being caught? What would happen if pe...
