Persistent organic contaminants in the Great Slave Lake ecosystem.
Principal Investigator: Evans, Marlene S.
Licensed Year(s): 1995 1994
Summary: The researchers will collect samples of sediments from the bottom of Great Slave Lake at sites near Fort Resolution and Lutsel K'e. This data will allow a better understanding of how fast sediments are deposited on the lake bottom in various regions. Researchers will also collect invertebrates and fish samples as part of an overall study of contaminants in the lake's ecosystem....


Ranch Lake Environmental Base-line Study
Principal Investigator: Somji, Feisal
Licensed Year(s): 1995
Summary: The researcher will conduct an intensive gillnetting program using multi-mesh gillnet gangs to determine the size and characteristics of fish populaitons in the project area. Both floating and bottom sets will be used, perpendicular and parallel to the shoreline. It is proposed that 40 fish of each species found will be taken from each lake sampled....


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...


Influence of season and latitude on the fatty acid composition of great northern pike
Principal Investigator: Schwalme, Karl
Licensed Year(s): 1988
Summary: Karl Schwalme wants to know how and why the fat content of pike changes during the year. He will collect about 30-50 great northern pike from each lake by using a 2 1/2 inch gill net which will only be set during the day. He will then take the fish back to the Inuvik Research Centre to determine their fat content. Since some of the fats help to prevent heart disease in people, the annual change ...
