The objective is to describe the aquatic environment in the Yellowknife River between Bluefish Lake and Prosperous Lake as per the Fisheries Authorization and the Water Licence. This may include investigating aquatic vegetation, water quality and quantity, benthic invertebrates, fish and substrate. The results will be used to determine the most suitable means of fish habitat compensation or produc...

2011 Summary:
This project is to fill gaps in ecological information on a Candidate Protected Area while it makes its way through the NWT Protected Areas Strategy (PAS) process. This information will be used by the working group to make recommendations on final boundary and management planning for the area.
The study will be done at the same time as a study on mercury in fish being conducted by the Dehcho F...

Project 1: Small samples of lichens will be collected from approximately 20 sites located along the Hood River and analyzed for contaminants. Lichens are good indicators of the types of air-borne contaminants that have been carried north to the arctic since they absorb their nutrients from the air. Project 2: The researcher will examine plant communities along the Hood River in order to study th...

Summary:
The research in Nahanni National Park includes the setting up of programs to monitor water depth and vegetational changes along the river. Changes in water depth influence the ability of navigating the river, especially in areas of rapids, and has implications on the level of expertise required by visitors travelling the river. Monitoring vegetation along the river will provide information about...

Summary:
The Researcher will map the present distribution of boreal and subarctic wetlands in the Mackenzie River Basin. Wetland vegetation and water chemistry will be described for areas immediately surrounding permanent weather stations. The ecological relationships between climate, wetland water chemistry and wetland species distribution will be analyzed. A predictive indicator model will be built to pr...
