International conservation strategy for the endangered bowhead whale of Baffin Bay.
chercheur principal: Finley, Kerry J.
Année(s) de permis: 1994 1993 1992
Résumé: Since 1983, Word Wildlife Fund has supported research on the bowhead of Isabella Bay. This research, representing the first ever conducted on this species, has identified Isabella Bay to be one of the most important habitats for bowhead in the eastern arctic. The whales use the area to feed, socialize and shelter them from killer whales. The researcher will continue his study of bowhead behavi...


Holocene Bowhead Whale (Balaena mysticetus) Skeletal Morphometrics and Taxonomy in the Eastern Canadian Arctic
chercheur principal: Savelle, James M.
Année(s) de permis: 1992 1990
Résumé: The researcher and his team will take a series of measurements on crania and mandibles of naturally stranded early Holocene bowhead whales. This will enable the original length of individual bowheads at death to be determined. These data will have immediate applications in the fields of environmental change and Thule archaeology....


Monitoring Movements and Dive Habits of Bowhead Whales Through Satellite Monitoried Radio Tags
chercheur principal: Mate, Bruce R.
Année(s) de permis: 1992 1991
Résumé: The Researchers will once again attempt to tag 12 bowhead whales. They will study how the whales move about during the feeding season and where and when they migrate west out of the Beaufort Sea. They will determine whether the migratory routes or timing vary between different kinds of animals and will determine the dive habits of the tagged animals....


Site Tenacity of Bowhead Whales and their Vulnerability to Displacement by Disturbance
chercheur principal: Cosens, Susan
Année(s) de permis: 1990
Résumé: The Researcher and team will apply new tag technology and DNA analysis to a study of site tenacity and industrial disturbance of bowhead whales. They will test the feasibility of using sonic tags to track bowheads underwater and will be testing sampling methods for collecting skin from live whales for DNA analysis....


Ecology of the Marine Copepod, "Limnocalanus", in Relation to Bowhead Feeding Sites along the Yukon Coast
chercheur principal: Sekarak, Aaron
Année(s) de permis: 1988
Résumé: Dr. Sekarak and his team will be collecting samples of plankton and ocean water from the Canadian Beaufort Sea coastline. These samples will be brought back to the Inuvik laboratory for analysis. At Shingle Point, the researchers will also be recording weather conditions and the temperature, clarity, and salt content of the ocean. They hope to use this information to find out more about importa...

chercheur principal: Davis, Rolph A.
Année(s) de permis: 1985
Résumé: To employ recently developed photogrammetric techniques to determine reproductive parameters of the bowhead whale and the status of the Western Arctic bowhead population; and the sampling of zooplakton to determine the availability of bowhead food in the Canadian Beaufort Sea....


Licence #5124
chercheur principal: McDonald, John W.
Année(s) de permis: 1985
Résumé: To conduct bowhead whale surveys by (1) systematic aerial surveys, (2) satellite oceanography and ground truthing, and (3) photogrammetric and reconnaissance studies....


Licence #4121
chercheur principal: Davis, Rolph A.
Année(s) de permis: 1984

Licence #4118
chercheur principal: Harwood, Lois
Année(s) de permis: 1984
Résumé: To monitor the relative abundance and distribution of bowhead whales relative to oil and gas industry activities....


Licence #4117
chercheur principal: Rugh, David J.
Année(s) de permis: 1984
Résumé: To collect photographs of bowhead whales which, through stereophotogrammetric techniques, will provide length measurements of these animals allowing for a better assessment of stock stability....
