2023 Summary:
This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5820.
The proposed project will evaluate the temporal and spatial distribution of Polybrominated Diphenyl Ethers (PBDE) in the water and sediment of Great Slave Lake and surrounding communities, landfills, drinking water, and industries to identify the source of PBDEs.
The concentration and distribution of PBDEs will b...

2021 Summary:
This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5138.
The objectives of this study are to determine the influence of permafrost thaw on the mobilization of carbon to stream ecosystems, and its subsequent effects on in-stream microbial communities and carbon cycling. The research team will measure stream water chemistry and collect water samples for microbial analysis at ...

2021
Summary:
This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.4703.
The objective is to improve the quantitative understanding of carbon dynamics in Canadian subarctic freshwaters, with a focus on identifying the processes governing the balance between carbon sinks and carbon sources to the atmosphere.
The research team will pair field-based observations with laboratory experiments...
Principal Investigator:Smith, Daniel W. Licensed Year(s):
1979
Summary:
To sample treated and untreated domestic water supplies for physical and chemical analysis, (e.g. turbidity, color, temperature and trace elements analysis, e.g. lead, zinc, silver and cadmium)....
Principal Investigator:Rigler, Frank Licensed Year(s):
1977
Summary:
To test the applicability of the Dillon and the Rigler (1974) method of predicting the nutritional status of lakes in the sub-Arctic. This will be done by chemically analyzing water samples taken from several lakes in the sub-Arctic to determine the ability of these lakes to sustain basic life forms....
Principal Investigator:Rigler, Frank Licensed Year(s):
1976
Summary:
1) To test the applicability of the Dillon and Rigler (1974) method of predicting the trophic status of lakes in the Sub-Arctic. 2) To modify and develop this method so accuracy and precision are improved....
