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...


The annual scientific Arctic expedition onboard the Canadian research icebreaker CCGS Amundsen
Principal Investigator: Merzouk, Anissa
Licensed Year(s): 2021
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.4997. The aim of the research programs supported by the Amundsen in 2021 is to study on a long-term basis how climate induced changes are impacting the marine ecosystem, carbon cycle, contaminant transport, biogeochemical fluxes, and exchange processes across the ocean-sea ice-atmosphere interface in the Canadian Arctic Oce...


Riverine inputs of contaminants to the Arctic Ocean
Principal Investigator: Swyripa, Murray
Licensed Year(s): 1993
Summary: Northward flowing rivers are thought to be major ways in which contaminants are introduced to the Arctic Ocean. As part of an on-going study, river water and sediments will be collected over the course of the year and assessed for the presence of contaminants. A total of 12 rivers in the Canadian arctic mainland will be sampled in this study, including the Mackenzie, Coppermine, Burnside, Ellice...


Spatial Variation and Scale in Terrestrial and Marine Inorganic and Organic Substance Distributions
Principal Investigator: Reimer, K.J.
Licensed Year(s): 1992 1991
Summary: The research team will collect bottom-dwelling marine organisms and sediment to examine how materials introduced locally and from distant sources distribute themselves in the marine environment, to understand the potential for adverse effects and the likely persistence of such materials in the future. As well, they will collect soil and plant samples to understand the potential for impact and per...
