NWT RESEARCH DATABASE

Principal Investigator: Clayton, Terry
Licensed Year(s): 1992
Summary: The researchers will obtain fisheries, water quality and bathymetric information on Long Lake, as well as obtaining information on the relative abundance of fish in other waterbodies of the South Basin. They will also obtain information on levels of metals in fish tissue from selected South Basin waterbodies....

Principal Investigator: Lockhart, W.L.
Licensed Year(s): 1993 1992
Summary: The researcher and his team will engage in a bathymetric survey to map the contours of the bottom of Lac Belot, as well as determine the distribution of fish in the lake. Several soil samples will be collected to determine the amount of atmospheric dust fallout. As well, tissue samples from 6 lake trout and 6 ground squirrels are to be collected to compare some aspects of their biochemistry with ...

Principal Investigator: Wolfe, Alexander P.
Licensed Year(s): 1992 1991 1990
Summary: The Researcher will continue to investigate lakes on the unglaciated terrain of Fosheim Peninsula to determine the former environments of high and low arctic lakes. By analyzing the physical and chemical properties of the sediments, as well as the preserved biological remains within them, the nature and timing of rapid environmental changes at the close of the last glaciation may be explained....

Principal Investigator: Medendorp, John
Licensed Year(s): 1992 1991
Summary: The Researchers will collect water depth measurements through the ice find a safe shipping route for sea-lift and fuel supply ship into Pelly Bay....

Principal Investigator: Pugh, David G.
Licensed Year(s): 1990
Summary: The Researcher will collect information for government departments to fulfill their respective mandates. The information will be made available through navigation charts used for marine transportation....

Principal Investigator: de Heering, Philippe
Licensed Year(s): 1984
Summary: To carry out phase I of a bathymetric survey system. A tower will be built on the ice and a rifle (460 cal Weaterby) mounted on it. The rifle will be discharged into the ice and measurements made to determine the amount of sound transmitted to the water, the level of bottom echo detected in air etc....

Principal Investigator: Bohn, Arne
Licensed Year(s): 1980
Summary: To conduct studies on water quality, lake sediment conditions, lake bottom profiles and small aquatic organisms....

Principal Investigator: Gilbert, Robert
Licensed Year(s): 1979
Summary: Bathymetry and sampling of the sediments at the bottom of the fiords....

Principal Investigator: Westworth, Dave
Licensed Year(s): 1977
Summary: To study the effect of seismic operations on the life patterns of indigenous muskrat populations....

Principal Investigator: Chapman, H.S.
Licensed Year(s): 1976
Summary: An examination of the sea bed using a Hudrosonde ED10 seismic profiler, sonar sounding equipment measure water depth and assess sea bed features and core samples....
