Under The Pole - Innovative Underwater Exploration
Principal Investigator: Bihan-Poudec, Anne-Claire
Licensed Year(s): 2017
Summary: This survey aims at discovering bioluminescent and biofluorescent species in Polar Regions (namely the Arctic), assessing and understanding the potential functions of the phenomena. Marcel Koken and his team hope to discover bioluminescent or biofluorescent species in the Arctic mesophotic zone. As the mission consists of an exploration of an under-studied part of the ocean, the scientific team...


ArcticNet: an Integrated Regional Impact Study of the Coastal Western Canadian Arctic.
Principal Investigator: Fortier, Martin
Licensed Year(s): 2013 2012 2011 2010 2009 2007 2006 2005 2004
Summary: The central aim of the ArcticNet marine-based research program is to study on a long-term basis how climate induced changes are impacting the marine ecosystem, contaminant transport, biogeochemical fluxes, and exchange processes across the ocean-sea ice-atmosphere interface in the Canadian Arctic Ocean. Ultimately, the knowledge generated from this multi-year program will be integrated into regio...


Nutrition and Distribution of Arctic Marine Zooplankton in Relation to their Physical Environment
Principal Investigator: Gustavson, Kent
Licensed Year(s): 1991 1990
Summary: The Researcher will determine how the feeding rates (also related to the availability of algal food) and metabolism of arctic marine zooplankton are related to their distribution and transportation through the waters of Barrow Strait....


Ecology of the Marine Copepod, "Limnocalanus", in Relation to Bowhead Feeding Sites along the Yukon Coast
Principal Investigator: Sekarak, Aaron
Licensed Year(s): 1988
Summary: Dr. Sekarak and his team will be collecting samples of plankton and ocean water from the Canadian Beaufort Sea coastline. These samples will be brought back to the Inuvik laboratory for analysis. At Shingle Point, the researchers will also be recording weather conditions and the temperature, clarity, and salt content of the ocean. They hope to use this information to find out more about importa...
