Beluga Lung and Ear Health
chercheur principal: Morell Ybarz, Maria
Année(s) de permis: 2015 2014
Résumé: The overall goal of our project is to study indicators of beluga health, which will lead to increased knowledge about normal function and how disease and human activities may impact belugas in the Western Arctic. There are two aspects of this project which focus on respiratory and acoustic disease respectively. Beta defensins from beluga will be characterized and their expression in response to po...

Human and chemical ecology of arctic pathways taken by marine pollutants
chercheur principal: Kassam, Karim-Aly S.
Année(s) de permis: 1999
Résumé: Research will begin with the development of a database of existing information concerning impact of pollutants on the human ecology. An interview protocol will be developed for collecting indigenous knowledge on the impact of chemical pollutants. By training two researchers in each community surveyed, local indigenous knowledge will be collected through participation by community based staff. All ...

Giardia in Marine Mammals
chercheur principal: Roach, Pat
Année(s) de permis: 1995
Résumé: Samples will be initially evaluated on a presence/absence basis and taken further if warranted. The gene probe analytical technique is new and will be employed for all positive samples. Results will be published in a report format which will be submitted to FJMC to FJMC and the HTC. A paper will also be produced for publication in a refereed Journal....

Investigation of the nervous and immune systems in the beluga
chercheur principal: Romano, Tracy
Année(s) de permis: 1993
Résumé: This research will examine the nervous (i.e., brain) and immune systems of beluga by collecting these tissues from harvested animals for laboratory analyses. This study will help to determine how contaminants affect the health of belugas. In addition, the data collected may lead to a better understanding of why whales strand themselves on the shoreline as it has been suggested that beached whale...

Satellite tagging of walrus
chercheur principal: Stewart, Robert E.A.
Année(s) de permis: 1993 1990
Résumé: The researchers will be attaching satellite transmitters to the tusks and tags to the flippers of walrus in order to study walrus behaviour and movements. In addition, body measurements and blood samples will be taken from all walrus that are handled in order that more information is known about the individuals being tagged. These activities will occur outside the normal Resolute Bay hunting ran...

Foxe Basin Walrus Hunt Monitoring Program
chercheur principal: Stephenson, Tasha
Année(s) de permis: 1993 1992 1991
Résumé: This project will involve the collection of data on the harvest of walrus in the Foxe Basin area. Measurements will be taken on the walrus harvested and tissue samples will be collected for the purpose of assessing contaminant levels in tissues. Hunters from Igloolik and Hall Beach will be trained in sampling techniques and the local Hunters' and Trappers' Associations will be contracted to carr...

Contaminant analyses for wildlife food sources in the Inuvialuit Settlement Region
chercheur principal: Bell, Bob
Année(s) de permis: 1993
Résumé: This project was initiated following the concern voiced by the six ISR communities about the presence and levels of contaminants in the major country food sources. Samples of body tissues will be taken from charr, whitefish, seals and belugas in order to assess for heavy metal, organochlorine and PCB contaminants. These samples will be taken while other field research is being conducted by Fishe...

Beaufort Sea beluga satellite tagging program
chercheur principal: Richard, Pierre
Année(s) de permis: 1993
Résumé: Beluga whales will be herded into shallow waters with boats and kept there for a short period of time. Whale size and sex will be determined and a small sample of skin will be taken for DNA analysis. Satellite tags will be attached to the dorsal ridge area of ten whales. These tags will allow the researchers to locate the whales' movements and diving patterns over the next several months....
