Beluga health and food borne parasites in the Inuvaluit Settlement region
Principal Investigator: Jenkins, Emily J
Licensed Year(s): 2020 2019 2018 2017 2016 2015
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.4667. The objectives of this project are: 1) to assess the health of the ISR beluga population (body condition, abnormalities, parasites); 2) to test for food borne parasites in beluga in the ISR (Toxoplasma, Trichinella); and, 3) to compare results to other marine mammal populations in the Arctic and beluga elsewhere. T...

ITH Metal Chemistry
Principal Investigator: Gammon, Paul R
Licensed Year(s): 2019
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.4544. The objectives of this research are: 1) To investigate the environmental chemistry of the borrow pits and immediate surrounding areas to determine what, if any, environmental risk do the elevated concentrations represent; 2) To investigate the environmental chemistry of an undisturbed area around the Inuvik to Tukto...
