    EIRB File No. 02/10-05 May 2011 ISSUED FOR USE 215 3.1.9 Wildlife and Wildlife Habitat This section of the document focuses on terrestrial mammals likely to be found within the local and regional study area and is based on a review of background information and traditional knowledge as well as the results of field studies. As defined under the IFA, “wildlife” means all fauna in a wild state other than reindeer. Section 3.1.9 considers terrestrial mammals and Section 3.1.10 considers birds. 3.1.9.1 Terrestrial Mammals There are 34 species of terrestrial mammals potentially occurring in the Regional Study Area for the proposed Highway (Table 3.1.9-1). The local and regional abundance and distribution of these species varies considerably depending on habitat availability and access to terrain suitable for various life history phases, such as calving and denning. No terrestrial mammal species were assessed as “at risk” under the NWT General Status Ranking Program (GNWT ENR 2011a).

    59.9(71.2) Article II.- MAMMALS FROM THE ATHABASKA-MIACKENZIE REGION OF CANADA. By J. A. ALLEN. During the summer of 1907 Mr. E. Thompson Seton, accompanied by Mr. Edward A. Preble of the Biological Survey as assistant, made an expedi- tion to the Barren Grounds in the vicinity of Aylmer Lake, Mackenzie District, for the purpose of natural history exploration. Their route was by way of the Athabaska River, Slave River, Great Slave Lake, and the chain of lakes northeastward to Aylmer Lake. The birds and mammals obtained on this trip were purchased for this Museum, through the generosity of Mrs. Morris K. Jesup. The birds have already been briefly reported upon by Mr. Seton; ' for the sake of the localities, and the measurements taken by Mr. Preble from the specimens in the flesh, it seems worth while to record these data for the mammals, which comprise about 2-70 specimens, and represent 25 species. The principal points at which collections were made are: Athabaska River, 20 miles below Athabaska Landing, May 18 and 19; Grand Rapids, Athabaska River, May 22-24; Fort McMurray, Athabaska River, May 28, 29; Slave River, June 6-8; Fort Smith, Slave River, on the Athabaska- Mackenzie boundary, June 13-July 2; Great Slave Lake (various points), July 19-27, September 10-27; east shore of Artillery Lake, August 2-5; Aylmner Lake (various points), August 14-29; Artillery Lake (mostly east shore at tree limit), August 31-September 8. The collection consists mainly of rodents, but lacks representatives of the genera Phenacomys and Synaptomys; it also contains only a single specimen of Sorex, and single specimens each of three species of Putorius; also only two specimens of Lepus, and one of Eutamias.

  • Mapping Known and Potential Karst Areas in the Northwest Territories, Canada
    Mapping Known and Potential Karst Areas in the Northwest Territories, Canada Derek Ford, PGeo., PhD, FRSC. Emeritus Professor of Geography and Earth Sciences, McMaster University [email protected] For: Environment and Natural Resources, Government of the Northwest Territories August 2009 (i) Executive Summary The Goal of this Report is to Produce Maps of the Known and Potential Karst Landform Sites in the Northwest Territories (NWT) Karst landforms are those created by the dissolution of comparatively soluble rocks and the routing of the water (from rain or snowmelt) underground via caves rather than at the surface in river channels. The principal karst rocks are salt (so soluble that it is scarcely seen at the surface in the NWT), gypsum and anhydrite (solubility around 2500 mg/l of water), and limestone and dolomite (solubility around 250 -350 mg/l). All of these rock types are common and widespread amongst the sedimentary strata in the NWT. Surface karst landforms include: a) karren, which are spreads of individually small solution pits, shafts, and runnels that, collectively, may cover many hectares (limestone pavements); b) sinkholes of solutional, collapse, or other origin that can be tens to hundreds of metres in diameter and proportionally as deep. Sinkholes are considered the diagnostic karst landform worldwide; c) larger topographically closed depressions that may flood or drain seasonally, poljes if flat-floored, otherwise turloughs; d) extensive dry valleys and gorges, dry because their formative waters have been captured underground. All water sinking underground via karst landforms of all sizes drain quickly in comparison with all other types of groundwater because they are able to flow through solutionally enlarged conduits, termed caves where they are of enterable size.

  • Annual Report of the Eastern Artic Marine Investigations for 1949
    C ONF IDENT IA L FISHERIES RESEARCH BOARD OF CANADA ANNUAL REPORT OF EASTERN ARCTIC FISHERIES INVESTIGATION FOR 1949 OTTAWA DECEMBER , 1949. Eastern Arctic Fisheries Inv'estigation, 1949, The Cruise of the "CALANUS", 1949. M. J.Dunbar I. Introduction and Summary. The terms of reference of these investetions are (1) to study the physical and biological oceanography of the eastern arctic and (2) to discover, if possible, marine resources which may be developed by and for the native population, Results obtained in Ungava bay during the 1949 season are listed in Dr. Dunbar's report, under these headings: (1) a. Sections were made from Burwell to Akpatok, from Akpatok to Payne bay, and from Akpatok to the mouth of the Koksoak river. Salinities, temperatures and oxygen concentrations were measured (the salinities not yet determined at time of writing). The sections were made in mid-July and one section, that from Payne bay to Akpatok, was repeated late in August in order to show the changes during the summer months* b, Echo-sounder tracks were recorded and kept from regions in Ungava bay where soundings are very incomplete, c. The study of the biology and distribution of the plankton, benthos and littoral fauna was continued, by the addition to the already large collections (from 1947 and 1948) of material from deeper water and from other areas than were possible to reach in the first two seasons. An effort was also made to collect micro-organisms by centrifuging methods. d. Experimental fishing for codfish, shark and flatfish, by hand line and by long lino trawl was continued.
