Compendium of Research in the Northwest Territories 1994 COMPENDIUM OF RESEARCH IN THE NORTHWEST TERRITORIES 1994 Including: Wildlife Permits, Scientific Licences and Archeological Permits AURORA RESEARCH INSTITUTE AURORA COLLEGE AURORA RESEARCH INSTITUTE 1994 COMPENDIUM OF RESEARCH IN THE NORTHWEST TERRITORIES Including: Wildlife Permits, Scientific Licences, and Archeological Permits ABOUT THE AURORA RESEARCH INSTITUTE The Science Institute of the Northwest Territories (SINT) was created by the NWT Legislative Assembly in 1984. In 1995, the SINT divided and merged with the Aurora College in western NWT and the Nunavut Arctic College in eastern NWT. The Science Institute West was renamed the Aurora Research Institute (ARI) in the spring of 1996. The ARI’s mandate is to improve the quality of life for western NWT residents by applying scientific, technological and indigenous knowledge to solve northern problems and advance social and economic goals. The ARI is responsible for: < licensing and coordinating research in accordance with the NWT Scientists Act: This includes work in the physical, social and biological sciences and in traditional knowledge. < promoting communication between scientists and the people of the communities in which they work; < promoting public awareness of the importance of science, technology and indigenous knowledge; < fostering a scientific community within the NWT which recognizes and uses the traditional knowledge of northern aboriginal people; < making scientific knowledge available to the people of the NWT; < supporting or conducting research which contributes to the social, cultural and economic prosperity of the people of the NWT. Aurora Research Institute Aurora College Box 1450 Inuvik, NT X0E 0T0 Tel: (867) 777-4029 Fax: (867) 777-4264 E mail: [email protected] June 5,1996 i FOREWORD The people of the Northwest Territories, our governing institutions and the private sector recognize the need for increased scientific and technological training. Training will allow northerners to adapt to the rapidly changing social and economic structure of the north. Partnerships are an effective way to meet this need. The Aurora Research Institute is one such partner and through the amalgamation with Arctic College research and development programs will be developed in partnerships with government agencies and community groups. The Aurora Research Institute works with these groups to identify research needs and ways to meet these needs. Researchers are also partners in these endeavours. Through the licensing process, community groups are informed about proposed and current research in their area. Researchers can involve northerners in their research activities through school and community presentations and through employment opportunities for residents. Employment in a research project gives northerners an understanding of career opportunities in Science and Technology. This compendium is a part of the Aurora Research Institute’s mandate to involve northerners in science and technology. By participating in this compendium, researchers are partners in making research accessible to northerners.

The Compendium series began in 1986. LICENSING IN THE NWT Under territorial legislation, all research in the NWT during 1994 required a licence/permit from one of three agencies, depending on the type of research being conducted: < Prince of Wales Northern Heritage Centre - archaeology < Department of Renewable Resources, Government of the Northwest Territories - wildlife < Science Institute of the NWT - all other research in the NWT Through the licensing process, researchers are informed of appropriate organizations, communities and other licensing/permitting agencies that should be contacted prior to conducting studies. Licensing ensures research activities are communicated to interested parties and provides opportunities for the exchange of information. Although the Compendium is a summary of all licences/permits issued in the NWT by all three licensing/permitting bodies, it is not a list of actual research conducted. Verification that the research was completed must be made with the researcher. HOW TO USE THIS BOOK The three main sections of this book contain the research descriptions. Each of these sections reflect a specific licensing agency and type of licence/permit issued. Within each section research descriptions have been grouped by subject, and listed alphanumerically by the principal researcher’s last name. Refer to the Table of Contents for the specific page each section and/or subject area begins on. 1. Reference Number The reference numbers shown in each of the Science Institute of the NWT’s subject areas refer to the file number issued to a particular researcher. It allows cross referencing with research material that may be available on file or in the ARI library. The reference numbers of the other two agencies refers directly to the permit number given to each iv researcher. When requesting information from any of these agencies on specific research outlined in this compendium please refer to the reference number in your correspondence. 2. Regional Abbreviations Throughout the book reference is given to the specific region(s) that the research took place in. The regions identify Government of the NWT political boundaries (see Figure 1) and do not reflect present land claim areas nor those being negotiated. The abbreviations shown for each region are as follows: BA Baffin FS Fort Smith IN Inuvik KE Keewatin KI Kitikmeot v 3. Indices At the back of this book, you will find indices. They have been developed to help the reader cross reference material more easily. The numbers listed in the indices refer to the number listed with each research description, not page number. AVAILABLE IN PRINT OR ON DISKETTE The Compendium is available as a printed publication or on diskette. The diskette version is in a WordPerfect format and has limited search capabilities. Contact the ARI for further information regarding search capabilities and services. Both the printed publication and the diskette are available from the Aurora Research Institute.

    Compendium of Research in the Northwest Territories 2014 www.nwtresearch.com This publication is a collaboration between the Aurora Research Institute, the Department of Environment and Natural Resources, Fisheries and Oceans Canada and the Prince of Wales Northern Heritage Centre. Thank you to all who submitted a summary of research or photographs, and helped make this publication possible. Editor: Ashley Mercer Copyright © 2015 ISSN: 1205-3910 Printed by Aurora Research Institute Foreword Welcome to the 2014 Compendium of Research in the Northwest Territories. This year marked a special anniversary for the Aurora Research Institute and northern research. Fifty years ago, the Inuvik Research Laboratory was built and has served as a hub for research in the western arctic ever since. The Lab, as it was known, was first built as an initiative of the Canadian federal government in the newly established community of Inuvik. It remains on the same site today, but in 2011, a new modern multi-purpose facility opened to continue to support research in the north. We have included a brief history of the Lab and its impact in this edition of the Compendium to mark its long lasting importance to many researchers and community members. As part of the 50th anniversary celebration, the Aurora Research Institute team undertook a full set of NWT-wide celebrations. We celebrated the history, capacity and growth of research in the NWT that touched all corners of the territory and beyond. We honoured the significant scientific contributions that have taken place in the NWT over the past 50 years, and the role of NWT researchers, technicians and citizens in these accomplishments.

  • Annual Report: October 1, 2014 Assessing the Impact of Small, Canadian Arctic River Flows to the Freshwater Budget of the Canadian Archipelago Matthew B
    Annual Report: October 1, 2014 Assessing the impact of small, Canadian Arctic River flows to the freshwater budget of the Canadian Archipelago Matthew B. Alkire, University of Washington Assessing the impact of small, Canadian Arctic river flows to the freshwater budget of the Canadian Archipelago (or SCARFs) is a scientific research project funded by the National Science Foundation (USA). The purpose of this project is to collect water samples from seven different rivers and their adjoining estuaries throughout the Canadian Arctic Archipelago (see Fig. 1) in order to determine whether or not their chemical signatures differ from larger North American rivers such as the Mackenzie and Yukon Rivers. Five of the rivers are located within Nunavut, Canada: the Coppermine River (near Kugluktuk), Ellice River (~140 km southeast of Cambridge Bay), Back River (~180 km southeast of Gjoa Haven), Cunningham River (~77 km southeast of Resolute Bay on Somerset Island), and Kangiqtugaapik River (near Clyde River, Baffin Island). Two of the rivers are located within the Northwest Territories, Canada: the Kujjuua River (located approximately 67 km northeast of Ulukhaktok on Victoria Island) and Thomsen River (specifically near the mouth of the river where it empties into Castel Bay, on Banks Island). Figure 1. Map of the Canadian Arctic Archipelago. The red stars indicate the mouths of the rivers sampled during this study: (1) Coppermine R., (2) Ellice R., (3) Back R., (4) Kuujuua R. (Victoria Island), (5) Thomsen R. (Banks Island), (6) Cunningham R. (Somerset Island), and (7) Clyde R. (Baffin Island). The Coppermine, Ellice, and Back Rivers are located on the mainland of Nunavut.

Irwin, P.C., M.P., Minister of Indian Affairs and Northern Development Ottawa, 1995 QS-8507-030-EF-Al Catalogue No. R72-244/1-1995E ISBN 0-662-23939-3 © Minister of Public Works and Government Services Canada FOREWORD The Arctic Environmental Strategy (AES), announced in April 1991, is a six-year $100 million Green Plan initiative. The overall goal ofthe AES is to preserve and enhance the integrity, health, biodiversity and productivity ofour Arctic ecosystems for the benefit ofpresent and future generations. Four specific programs address some ofthe key environmental challenges: they are waste cleanup, contaminants, water management, and environment and economy integration. The programs are managed by the Northern Affairs Program ofthe Department of Indian Affairs and Northern Development (DIAND); however, there is a strong emphasis on partnerships with northern stakeholders including Native organizations, other federal departments and the territorial governments. The AES Action on Water Program specifically strives to enhance the protection ofnorthern freshwaters through improved knowledge and decision-making. Water Resources managers in the Yukon and the Northwest Territories administer this Program which focuses on freshwater aquatic ecosystems. This report is the first detailed compilation ofstudies.conducted under the AES Action on Water Program. It covers work done from 1991 to 1994. Many studies have been concluded, while others are ongoing. Although data may not be available for all studies, or results are preliminary at this time, this report presents detailed background, objectives and methodology.
