Summary:
This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.4988.
The objectives of this project are to determine: 1) From the outer Slave River Delta (SRD) (river-water dominated) to the apex of the SRD (runoff dominated), what the current status of nutrients and contaminants in SRD wetland ecosystems are; 2) How trace elements (e.g., mercury) move through SRD wetland food webs; an...

The overall aim is to assess the carbon balance of the Mackenzie River Basin and to place constraints on the role of climatic and physical erosion processes in driving carbon dioxide source and sinks to the atmosphere and oceans. More specifically, the researchers aim to quantify the amount of chemical weathering that takes place in the Mackenzie River Basin; to quantify how much weathering of sil...

Summer 2005 field activities will focus on continuing multi-year studies of the modern hydrology and ecology of the Slave River Delta. The aim of this research is to improve knowledge of changes in lake water balance and chemistry and the subsequent responses of aquatic plants over seasonal and inter-annual time-scales under varying climatic and hydrological conditions. Overall, this information...
