Wildfires and contaminated landscapes: The impact of wildfire on the mobility, transport and fate of metal(loids) in a subarctic shield landscape
Principal Investigator: Devoie, Élise
Licensed Year(s): 2024
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5898. The main goal of this project is to explore how wildfire will affect the stability and fate of metals and metalloids (i.e. arsenic, mercury, antimony) in mining contaminated and pristine landscapes. Metal(loid) concentrations in air, soil, and water in and around Boundary Creek (30 km west of Yellowknife) will be co...

Recovery of the Mine-impacted Landscape in the Yellowknife Region
Principal Investigator: Palmer, Mike
Licensed Year(s): 2023
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5534. The long-term objective of this research is to determine what processes control the recovery of the landscape near Yellowknife that was contaminated by stack emissions from the Giant Mine roaster, and how this recovery will be affected by climate change and unusual or severe weather events. One focus will be on how cl...

Toxic Effects of Chronic Arsenicosis in Muskrats and Squirrels from Yellowknife
Principal Investigator: Amuno, Solomon A
Licensed Year(s): 2017
Summary: The objectives of this research project are to: 1. investigate the effects of chronic arsenic exposure on reproductive parameters, specifically seminal and hormonal parameters including testicular pathology and os penis (baculum) morphology of small mammals (muskrats and squirrels) inhabiting the vicinity of the Yellowknife area, near the Giant mine, and in a reference location approximately 30-8...
