The Effectiveness of a Diversion Channel in Providing Fish Habitat in NWT Barrenlands
Principal Investigator: Jones, Nicholas
Licensed Year(s): 2001 2000 1999
Summary: The proposed research project will involve extensive photography, habitat mapping and inventory at Pigeon Creek, and measurement of young-of-the-year grayling in July and August in the channel, Polar-Vulture, Pand-Polar and Pigeon Creeks. Growth data will be used to determine the environmental health of the stream(s) studied. Approximately 100 young-of-the-year grayling will be collected per str...

Ingraham Trail Area Lakes Fish Habitat Restoration/Enhancement
Principal Investigator: Palmer, Rick
Licensed Year(s): 2001
Summary: The research team will be based in Yellowknife, and transported to Prelude Lake by truck. Transport on the lake will be by 20' Alaskan boat equipped with a 55 hp motor (supplied by the North Slave Metis Alliance). Baseline information will be collected on the composition of a number of target species: Lake Trout, White Fish, Cisco, Burbot, Northern Pike and forage species. Both 30 m beach seine...

Colomac Mine Abandonment and Restoration Plan - Fisheries Component
Principal Investigator: Thomas, Craig J
Licensed Year(s): 2000
Summary: This is a preliminary fisheries study to confirm 1989 baseline studies and to assist in impact assessment for Abandonment and Restoration (A & R) Plan for site closure. The researchers will conduct habitat assessments along drainages of Steeves Lake and Indin River (i.e. fish habitat mapping, assessment of habitat potential, 'spot check' confirmation of fish communities, the collection of instant...

Fisheries & Vegetation analysis for the Range Oil Fort Liard P66 Pipeline Project
Principal Investigator: Machtans, Hillary
Licensed Year(s): 1998
Summary: Fisheries and vegetation field work will begin in June 1998. Three small streams north of Fort Liard will be surveyed to determine if fish are present or absent and to assess the fish habitat in each creek. Two of these creeks are tributaries to the Liard River and are located near the P66 well site. Fisherman Creek, the tributary draining into Fisherman Lake from the Liard Range will also be surv...

Food and habitat use among fishes of the Slave River, NWT.
Principal Investigator: Little, Alison
Licensed Year(s): 1995
Summary: The researchers will sample the fishes in three areas (below the rapids at Fort Smith, at the mouth of the Salt River, and in the delta) throughout the open-water season to monitor broad patterns of habitat distribution of the different species and different sizes/ ages of each species. Fish will be collected by use of multi-mesh gill nets, set lines and seines. Fish measurements, aging structu...

Development of Ecosystem Maintenance Indicators (EMI's) for the Peel, Liard and Slave Rivers.
Principal Investigator: MacDonald, Donald D.
Licensed Year(s): 1995
Summary: The T.E.K. component of the study will involve a series of interviews with residents in the Liard River basin. These interviews will be conducted by an interviewer who is competent in English and Slavey. The interviews will be recorded on audio tape and transcribed later onto the questionaire and maps. The communities will be provided with copies of all raw and summarized information....

Environmental Studies of the Aquatic Resources of Spyder Lake.
Principal Investigator: Reed, Shawna
Licensed Year(s): 1994
Summary: The researcher will determine fish presence/absence and/or densities (number of fish per unit stream length) by electrofishing representative habitat (eg. pool, riffle, run) and the setting of baited minnow traps. When these two methods are not practical (eg. depth too great or flow too fast), gillnets and/or beach seines will be used. Fish caught will be identified, measured, weighed, sexed and t...

Habitat Utilization and Fish Community Structure in the Snare River.
Principal Investigator: Reed, Shawna
Licensed Year(s): 1994
Summary: In this study fish presence/absence and/or densities will be obtained by electrofishing representative habitat and the setting of baited minnow traps. When these two methods are not practical gill nets, trap nets, and/or beach seines will be employed. Each fish caught will be identified, measured, sexed and condition will be noted. Ten specimens of each species from each site (up to 10) will be...

Environmental Studies of the Aquatic Resources in the Lac de Gras Area.
Principal Investigator: Pelletier, Clem
Licensed Year(s): 1994
Summary: In project area streams, fish presence/absence and/or densities will be obtained by electrofishing representative habitat. Benthic invertebrates ans periphyton (stream algae) will be sampled at stream sites to determine seasonal changes in composition, distribution and abundance. Lake fisheries population studies will involve fish trapping. Lake limnology, plankton and benthic invertebrates wil...
