Summary: Ice gauges are installed on river ice once the ice is strong enough to support researchers (20 gauges for the Mackenzie Delta and 15 gauges for Hay River). These gauges are read every 10 days to obtain total ice thickness, white ice thickness and snow depth. From these data, the rates of ice growth and decay can be calculated, and the approximate date of maximum ice thickness can be determined....

Principal Investigator: McCart, Peter
Licensed Year(s): 1980
Summary: As part of the Slave River Hydro Study to conduct a continuing assessment of the fisheries resources of the area. life histories of the fish populations will be recorded. Basic data will be gathered on the aquatic habitat. The resource will also be evaluated as to its local, regional and national significance....

Summary: To collect samples of soil and vegetation to assess the ecological importance of the spring flood and downstream importance of hydroelectric developments....

Principal Investigator: Chang-Kue, Ken T.J.
Licensed Year(s): 1976
Summary: Investigate the fish population in order to accurately define the fisheries resource and critical aspects of their life cycle with reference to the impact of a proposed hydroelectric project....
