Further Examination of the Bio- Magnification of Mercury within Fish Species of the Deh Cho and their Varying Levels among Lakes
Principal Investigator: Swanson, Heidi
Licensed Year(s): 2018 2017 2016 2016 2015 2014 2013
Summary: The objectives of this research project are: 1) to determine why fish mercury levels vary among lakes in the Dehcho region; 2) to identify best predictors of fish mercury levels; and, 3) to determine with fish have the lowest levels of mercury and the highest levels of nutrients. The methods for this project include field sampling, laboratory analysis, and data analysis and reporting. The resea...


Latitudinal patterns of organochlorine contamination in zooplankton
Principal Investigator: Koenig, Brenda
Licensed Year(s): 1993
Summary: Organochlorine contaminants can be carried to the arctic in the atmosphere. I will be measuring the amount of these contaminants in zooplankton to determine the effects and range of organochlorines in the arctic ecosystem. The information that I collect will be useful in determining what types of organochlorines are most common in zooplankton as well as providing a means to estimate the levels o...
