Résumé: This long-term study documents the types of birds found on the major islands in James Bay. Sightings of mammals, amphibians and butterflies will also be recorded. Sampling methods include point counts, line transects and direct counts....


Nesting-bird habitat relationships on the Yukon Coastal Plain: A program to establish initial relationships and populations (April 1992 to March 1994)
chercheur principal: Hawkings, James S.
Année(s) de permis: 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....


Distribution, abundance, productivity, survival and habitat of white-fronted geese, Canada geese, Pacific brant and tundra swans in the Inuvialuit Region.
chercheur principal: Hines, Jim
Année(s) de permis: 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...


Productivity of Marine Mammal Food Chains in the Northwest Passage
chercheur principal: Welch, Harold
Année(s) de permis: 1993 1992 1991 1990 1988 1987
Résumé: 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....


Song Dialects of Lapland Longspurs and Female Reproductive Strategies in Arctic Birds.
chercheur principal: Montgomerie, Robert D.
Année(s) de permis: 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....


Migration, Ecophysiology and Energetics of Shorebirds at Alert, Ellesmere Island
chercheur principal: Morrison, R.I.G.
Année(s) de permis: 1992 1991 1990
Résumé: Work by Dr. Morrison at Alert in the mid 1970's established the Knots and Turnstones breeding on northern Ellesmere Island migrate to wintering grounds on the European seaboard. Most migrate via staging areas in Iceland, though some of the population reaches Ellesmere via Norway. The internationally coordinated research program carried out over the last six years to study the migration, ecophysiol...


Shorebird and Waterfowl Nesting Habitat in the Mackenzie Delta, N.W.T.
chercheur principal: Roney, Keith
Année(s) de permis: 1995 1991
Résumé: The Researcher will gather information by aerial reconnaissance to take photographs of nesting areas; a ground study by boat to photograph and take notes on the habitat of nesting birds; a library search for information on the Mackenzie Delta and will conduct interviews with local researchers and residents for additional information....


Breeding Biology of the Harris' Sparrow and White-crowned Sparrows in the Thelon Game Sanctuary, N.W.T.
chercheur principal: Norment, Christopher
Année(s) de permis: 1991 1990
Résumé: The Researcher will continue to study the breeding biology of the Harris' Sparrow and White-crowned Sparrow. He will collect both physical and genetic information which include factors such as weather, food supply, nest-site, predators, number of eggs, breeding cycle and condition of females....

chercheur principal: Hankinson, Flt. LT. K.W.
Année(s) de permis: 1991 1988
Résumé: Multi-disciplinary research will be undertaken in botany, geology, micro meteorology, soil science, remote sensing, breeding biology of Arctic char and archaeological survey. These studies are a continuation of those begun in 1988....


Trophic Relationships and Energetics of Arctic Cod in High-Arctic Marine Food Chains
chercheur principal: Hop, Haakon
Année(s) de permis: 1991 1990 1988
Résumé: The Researcher and his assistant will collect Arctic cod. Samples of these will be taken and studied to investigate the feeding ecology of Arctic cod and the energy flow through Arctic cod from zooplankon to marine mammals and sea birds....
