Assessment of the Boloria chariclea complex
chercheur principal: Leski, Michael L
Année(s) de permis: 2013 2011
Résumé: The primary objective of this project is to collect B. chariclea arctica from sites in the Yukon and Northwest Territories. A network of haplotypes will be constructed, based on the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) gene, and a mismatch analysis will be performed to determine if genetic structure has been influenced by a sudden expansion in population size or long term stability. ...

Devon Tuk 2 Gas Development 2006 Field Assessment Program
chercheur principal: Chiperzak, Doug
Année(s) de permis: 2006
Résumé: Biophysical and heritage resource surveys will take place in late summer and fall, and contribute to the assessment of a potential development projects (the Tuk 2 M-18 well site and connecting pipeline to Parsons Lake and the Mackenzie Gas Pipeline) located in the Tuktoyaktuk Peninsula, about 12 km southeast of Tuktoyaktuk and 125 km northeast of Inuvik. The field assessment will involve four s...

Local Caribou Ethologies in the Circumpolar Arctic
chercheur principal: Anderson, David G
Année(s) de permis: 1998
Résumé: The method of data collection will be participant observation of hunting and processing activities at camps established within the Gwich'in Settlement Area. The camps will be established by the Gwich'in Renewable Resource Committee and will involve several generations of Gwich'in hunters: elders, adults and youth. One research assistant will participate in setting up the camp and in the day-to-day...

The role of predation in nesting success of black brant and lesser snow geese
chercheur principal: Armstrong, Terry
Année(s) de permis: 1993 1992 1991
Résumé: This ongoing study will involve observing glaucous gulls as they prey on nests of black brant and lesser snow geese. I will attempt to determine why the gulls seem to be more successful when attacking the nests of brant than those of snow geese. I will examine the feeding behaviour of the gulls and the defense behaviour of the geese. I will also examine the nesting success and clutch sizes of b...

Responses of marine mammals to vessel noise
chercheur principal: Cosens, Susan
Année(s) de permis: 1993 1992
Résumé: In this final year of the study, the researcher will be testing the responses of beluga whales to previously recorded underwater (background) and boat noise. The whales' behaviour to the recorded noises will be measured as a way to determine if belugas alter their behaviour to boat traffic....

Biology of ringed seals and the impact of ice-breaking traffic on ringed seal biology and behaviour
chercheur principal: Innes, Stuart
Année(s) de permis: 1993 1992
Résumé: This project is a continuation of the NOGAP B.1 Marine Mammal Vessel Interaction Project. It studies the effects of ship traffic on the behaviour of ringed seals during the fast-ice period and the habitat selection of ringed seals. Seals will be located and live- trapped in order that they can be tagged and monitored. Changes in seal behaviour and distribution will be examined before, during an...

Under-ice behaviour of ringed seals.
chercheur principal: Kelly, Brendan P.
Année(s) de permis: 1993 1992
Résumé: This project is investigating the social organization, diving behaviour, and foraging patterns of ringed seals under the shore-fast ice. Trained dogs will locate the breathing holes and lairs of seals located beneath the snow. Sonic transmitters will be attached to the seals and monitored by way of 4 hydrophones lowered through the ice. The 3-dimensional locations of seals will be calculated, d...

Electrophoretic Studies of North American Halictid Bees
chercheur principal: Taylor, John S.
Année(s) de permis: 1992
Résumé: The researcher and his team will collect specimens of bees that belong to the subgenus Evylaeus (Family Halictid), which are small "ant-like" bees sometimes called "sweat bees." The researcher would like to determine how they are related to the European species, which, unlike the Evylaeus, are social in their behaviour. This study may shed some light on the evolution of social behaviour in bees....

The Role of Latitude on Mating Systems in Notostraca
chercheur principal: Straszynski, Elizabeth
Année(s) de permis: 1990
Résumé: "Tadpole shrimp" (Notostraca) occur in ponds at all latitudes in Canada. Activity and behavior show differences between the sexes. Mating behaviour shows differences between the two latitudes already tested. Studies in southern and northern Manitoba (Portage la Prairie; Churchill) will be compared with those in the eastern Northwest Territories (Igloolik)....

Effects of shipping vessel traffic and vessel noise on the behaviour and distribution of Arctic marine mammals.
chercheur principal: Cosens, Susan
Année(s) de permis: 1987
Résumé: To document the behaviour and distribution of marine mammals in respones to underwater pre-recorded vessel noise and ice-breaking noise; examine the normal behaviour of marine mammals and responses to playback recordings of their own signals. The marine mammals for which these study objectives are primarily aimed at are narwhal, beluga, and bowhead whales....
