Nutrient and contaminant status in the wetlands of the Slave River Delta
Principal Investigator: Doig, Lorne
Licensed Year(s): 2021
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.4988. The objectives of this project are to determine: 1) From the outer Slave River Delta (SRD) (river-water dominated) to the apex of the SRD (runoff dominated), what the current status of nutrients and contaminants in SRD wetland ecosystems are; 2) How trace elements (e.g., mercury) move through SRD wetland food webs; an...


Imaryuk Monitor Pilot Program
Principal Investigator: Sparling, Paul D
Licensed Year(s): 2018
Summary: The purpose of the study is to create a data base that will allow for informed decisions to direct the appropriate environmental responses to road issues and community fish management and harvest issues. This program will also provide a knowledge base to the Inuvialuit that will allow for the wise and sustainable long term management of fish resources in the study area. This program will involv...


The Continuation of a Community-led Fish Monitoring Study in Déline, NT 2012
Principal Investigator: Macdonald, Colin R
Licensed Year(s): 2012 2010 2009
Summary: The goal of this project is to determine the levels of potential chemicals of concern in three major fish species through the analysis of muscle and liver samples for mercury, radionuclides and a number of elements. Fish of three species (lake trout, lake whitefish and lake herring) will be collected in the Keith Arm of Great Bear Lake near the community of Deline. Approximately 15 trout and 10...

ArcticNet Theme 1: Integrated Regional Impact Study of the Coastal Western Canadian Arctic
Principal Investigator: Fortier, Martin
Licensed Year(s): 2013 2012 2011 2010 2009 2007 2006 2005 2004
Summary: The main objective of this project is to start long-term marine observatories in order to study variability and change in the context of climate change in the coastal Canadian Arctic. Field work for this project started in Fall 2004 when six observatories (instrument moorings) were deployed in the Mackenzie Shelf/Amundsen Gulf area. As part of this year’s expedition, the six moorings will be r...


An investigation of the factors affecting high mercury concentrations in predatory fish in the Mackenzie River Basin.
Principal Investigator: Evans, Marlene S.
Licensed Year(s): 2003 1998
Summary: It has recently been learned that predatory fish in some lakes in the Mackenzie Basin have very high concentrations of mercury. This study will try to determine why the mercury concentrations are high. The researcher will fly into Cli Lake. A boat, a depth sounder and a global positional finder will be used to find out how deep the lakes in different spots. The temperature of the water, its acidit...


Baker Creek Fisheries Habitat and Restoration Study
Principal Investigator: Thomas, Craig J
Licensed Year(s): 1998
Summary: This study serves to identify existing habitat characteristics of the identified portion of Baker Creek, identify resident fish communities at the time of sampling, and to identify potential rehabilitation and restoration concepts to assist in the re-establishment of historic fish habitat conditions. Field studies will involve the identification of fish habitat characteristics, the identification ...
