Summary:
Researchers will investigate lake trout movements in the vicinity of the Lupin gold mine at Contwoyto Lake. Tagging will be by conventional methods and will also include the use of ultrasonic transmitters which are surgically implanted in lake trout. Fish movements will be monitored at intervals throughout the summer. The primary capture methodology will be angling....

Summary:
The researcher has been commissioned by Echo Bay Mines Ltd. to conduct an assessment of heavy metal contaminants in the fish of Contwoyto and Concession Lakes. Most of the study will concentrate on contaminants in lake trout but analyses will be performed on the tissues of other fish species that are caught. The study will be based out of the Lupin Mine site at Contwoyto Lake....

199219911990 Summary:
The researcher will be collecting lake trout and/or arctic charr from lakes in the vicinities of Hay River, Inuvik, Paulatuk and Tuktoyaktuk in order to examine the distributions of these species. Samples of liver and muscle tissue will be collected from these fish for genetic analyses: this research will provide information about how different populations are related to each other (i.e., their o...

1992 Summary:
As part of this ongoing study, sediment samples will be taken fron the deepest locations of Lac Belot and Colville Lake. These samples will be analyzed for the presence of contaminants and dated. These analyses will allow the researcher to construct histories of the input of contaminants to these lakes. In addition, lake trout, whitefish and burbot will be collected to determine what contaminan...
