Lichens as indicators of trace-element air pollution in the environment and environmental controls on plant species richness and composition along an arctic river
Principal Investigator: Gould, William
Licensed Year(s): 1994 1993 1992 1991 1990
Summary: Project 1: Small samples of lichens will be collected from approximately 20 sites located along the Hood River and analyzed for contaminants. Lichens are good indicators of the types of air-borne contaminants that have been carried north to the arctic since they absorb their nutrients from the air. Project 2: The researcher will examine plant communities along the Hood River in order to study th...

Geographic Distribution, Physiological Adaptations, Systematics and Ecology of Stream Macroalgae in North America
Principal Investigator: Sheath, Robert
Licensed Year(s): 1994 1992
Summary: The researcher and his team will survey streams for macroscopic algae, and relate their distribution to various physical and chemical characteristics, biomes and drainage basins. They will also set up a seasonal study of the physiological adaptations of macroalgae to the harsh conditions of tundra streams. As well, a widespread seaweed will be collected for comparison with other populations to d...

Arctic Fieldwork, 1992
Principal Investigator: Beyens, L.
Licensed Year(s): 1992 1987
Summary: In the vicinity of Cambridge Bay the researcher hopes to gain more insight in the biogeography and ecology of unicellulars, i.e. diatoms and testate amoebae. A small collection of samples of terrestrial and aquatic material will be undertaken....

Bluenose Lake Natural Resources Survey
Principal Investigator: Scotter, George
Licensed Year(s): 1990
Summary: The Researcher and team will carry out this survey at the request of the community of Paulatuk. They will summarize the existing knowledge of the natural resources of the Bluenose Lake Region. A total of about 20 stops will be made to examine the vegetation, soil, wildlife and physiogeography and to collect plant and soil samples....
