Metals levels in large bodied fishes near impacted lakes near Yellowknife, NWT
Principal Investigator: Somers, Gila L
Licensed Year(s): 2018 2017 2016
Summary: The objectives of this project are to collect fish tissue samples from species of subsistence importance to: 1) establish a long-term community monitoring program for contaminants in fish; and, 2) to monitor potential spatial and temporal trends in metal concentrations (including mercury) in fish tissues within the Yellowknife region. The data acquired will be added to existing and concurrently co...


The Bio- Magnification of Mercury within Fish Species of the Deh Cho and Their Varying Levels Among Lakes
Principal Investigator: Swanson, Heidi
Licensed Year(s): 2018 2017 2016 2016 2015 2014 2013
Summary: The objectives of this research project are to: 1) determine why fish mercury levels vary among lakes in the Dehcho region; 2) identify best predictors of fish mercury levels; and, 3) determine which fish have the lowest levels of mercury and highest levels of micro-nutrients and fatty acids. The methods for this project include two parts, first is the collection of food web data from each lake...
