1993
Résumé:
The populations of nesting birds will be determined in a selected number of plots that represent the various tundra habitats on the Yukon Coastal Plain. The selected plots will be surveyed on foot during the spring (June) to identify the most important habitats for bird species nesting on the coastal plain. This project has been approved by the North Slope Wildlife Management Advisory Committee....

1993
Résumé:
Data on the distribution, abundance, survival/mortality, and productivity are essential for the sound management of wildlife populations but there is a critical lack of such information for white-fronted geese, Canada geese, Pacific brant and tundra swan populations from the Inuvialuit Settlement Region. Helicopter surveys, ground counts and banding/neck collaring will help to determine distribut...

The researcher and his team will continue their marine research at Resolute. They will continue their work on the trophic dynamics of the arctic marine food chain as it pertains to marine mammal and seabird production. The main goal is to obtain data on seasonal cycles of energy flow. The team will also be examining organochlorine and heavy metal contaminants in the marine system....

1992
Résumé:
The researcher and his team will determine the extent of local and geographic variation in Lapland longspur songs. As well, they will look at the variety of strategies used by female birds to ensure their reproductive success in a cold environment. They will also examine the ability of eggs to withstand cold temperatures and the methods used by females in raising their offspring....
