Community-based Traditional Knowledge Monitoring for Better Decision-making
Principal Investigator: Keats, Beth
Licensed Year(s): 2018
Summary: This is the 3rd Phase of the research program looking at how Indigenous Knowledge is included in GNWT decision making and understanding cumulative impact management. The first phases consisted of a literature review, analysis of Reasons for Decisions in environmental assessments (EAs), and qualitative analysis of interviews in Phase 1 & 2, and yielded recommendations for decision-makers and TK res...

The Impacts of Caribou Co-management Arrangements on Development Activities in Caribou Habitat
Principal Investigator: Kofinas, Gary P
Licensed Year(s): 2007
Summary: The objective of this study is to determine what techniques caribou co-management arrangements are using to address industrial development in caribou ranges, what impacts they are having, and how they may increase their impacts if needed. One of the pervasive threats facing caribou populations is habitat change. Habitat changes may occur due to a variety of reasons, including industrial develo...

Trudel Creek: Aquatics Assessment for Minimum Flow Threshold
Principal Investigator: Uren, Shane
Licensed Year(s): 2007 2006
Summary: The field survey of the fish habitat and community of Trudel Creek and a section of the Taltson River will likely take place during one trip in August, although there is the possibility of a second trip to collect additional information. The field team will fly into Fort Smith and then be transported to the Twin Gorges Camp either by plane or helicopter. Rescan will use a local helicopter company ...

Traditional Knowledge Study of Flood and Climatic History in the Slave River Delta, NWT
Principal Investigator: Armitage, Derek
Licensed Year(s): 2005 2004
Summary: The Slave River Delta is one of a series of important delta ecosystems in the Mackenzie Basin. The adjacent community of Fort Resolution depends on its high biological productivity and diversity for both food and resources. Recent and predicted changes i...

Paleohydrological and Paleoecological Reconstruction of the Mackenzie Basin Deltas
Principal Investigator: Wolfe, Brent BBW
Licensed Year(s): 2007 2006 2005 2004 2003 2002
Summary: This project will formulate a history of the frequency and magnitude of floods and droughts and corresponding ecological responses in the Mackenzie Basin deltas over the past 1000 years. Fieldwork in 2003 will focus on assessing seasonal variability of l...

Studies on the past, present and future ecological impact on Canadian northern boreal forest and arctic ecosystems due to mining activities, shown at the Great Slave Lake area, Northwest Territories, Canada
Principal Investigator: Steinecke, Karin
Licensed Year(s): 1998 1997
Summary: The project will focus on understanding, analyzing and evaluating the reactions of the northern boreal forest ecosystems in the Great Slave Lake region due to man made stress of mining, settlement and connecting activities. The project will try to develop some general conclusions, statements and model systems. The research team (2 persons) will come from Europe to Yellowknife by plane. The base wi...

NRBS Project #4121 - Survey of northern households, interest groups, industries, and local government.
Principal Investigator: Thompson, John
Licensed Year(s): 1995
Summary: The researchers will first conduct a telephone survey with a random sample of northern residents. A further mail in questionaire will be completed by those in agreement. A similar questionaire will be mailed to representatives of local government and interest groups and interest groups that were identified in a screening study conducted in June, 1994....
