Beaufort Shelf Ecosystem Monitoring
Principal Investigator: Williams, Bill
Licensed Year(s): 2023
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5753. The objective is continued annual collection of relevant data on aspects the Beaufort shelf marine ecosystem. Research activity in the Beaufort region is a brief mission at sea in the autumn of each year to recover and replace the observing system that acquires these data year round. The research activities at home-b...


Potential Impacts of Climate Change on the levels of Poly- and Perfluoroalkyls in Country Foods and Implications for Human Health Risk
Principal Investigator: Wallace, Elizabeth
Licensed Year(s): 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5313. The objectives of this study are to estimate potential future Perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) concentrations in marine country foods under two climate change scenarios, and to determine dietary exposure estimates and hazard indices based on potential future concentrations and dietary intake data. The longer-term obje...


Assessment of the Western Arctic Boundary Current
Principal Investigator: Pickart, Robert S.
Licensed Year(s): 2022
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5231. The main objective is to characterize the western Arctic Boundary current, which flows at the edge of the shelf, in order to understand its role in dictating shelf-basin exchange of water and materials and how it impacts the ecosystem of the region, including the occurrence of marine mammals. This project is a coll...
