Principal Investigator: Schryer, Rick P.
Licensed Year(s): 1998
Summary: The objective of these studies is to determine the presence or absence of fish and wildlife in the vicinity of the proposed project area. A literature search for registered archeological sites within the proposed project area is also planned. A literature review will be done to document any existing information on fish populations in the region. A preliminary survey of physical, chemical and biolo...

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...

Principal Investigator: Clayton, Terry
Licensed Year(s): 1992
Summary: The researchers will obtain fisheries, water quality and bathymetric information on Long Lake, as well as obtaining information on the relative abundance of fish in other waterbodies of the South Basin. They will also obtain information on levels of metals in fish tissue from selected South Basin waterbodies....

Principal Investigator: Stewart, D. Bruce
Licensed Year(s): 1987
Summary: To assess the commercial fishing potential of rivers near the head of Prince Albert Sound, Victoria Island, NWT, by placing in a live capture weir to count the fish running up Kuuk River, and by tagging and sampling the char. Also gillnet testing will be completed at Nalaogyuk and Kagluk Rivers. A number of fish from each site will be analyzed for pesticide and heavy metals....

Principal Investigator: Malick, James G.

Summary: 1) To continue the study on the impact of development on two lakes-Saqvacjuac (Northern Keewatin) 2) To conduct fish production level studies and nutrient level determinations.- Cape Vera (Devon Island)....

Principal Investigator: Haedrich, Richard L.
Licensed Year(s): 1981
Summary: (1) A study of local fish populations resistance to freezing. (2) A study of local fish populations ability to resist toxic substances. (3) A study of local fish abundance, species and distribution....

Principal Investigator: Kristensen, John
Licensed Year(s): 1981
Summary: To conduct baseline fisheries studies and inventories> Samples of all species will be caught with some retained for future laboratory analysis and heavy and trace metal determination. The object is to determine abundance and distribution of each species. The aquatic habitat will also be described and mapped....
