Contaminant Bioaccumulation in Landlocked Char Food Webs in the High Arctic
This study compared the concentrations of perfluorocarboxylates, perfluorosulfonates, and fluorotelomer sulfonates (FTS) in biotic and abiotic samples from six high Arctic lakes... -
Mercury and other elements in landlocked char from East and West Lake, Cape B...
The Cape Bounty Arctic Watershed Observatory (CBAWO) utilizes two adjacent, geologically similar watersheds, West and East, which are currently undergoing climate-driven... -
Contaminant and Biological Data on Landlocked Arctic Char
We set out to examine possible links between climate warming and increases in mercury concentrations ([Hg]) in landlocked Arctic char (Salvelinus alpinus) in the High Arctic.... -
Investigation of the Toxic Effects of Mercury in Landlocked Arctic Char
Data collected from landlocked char in northern Canada and Greenland indicates that 30 percent of the populations surveyed exceed toxicity thresholds for Hg in fish. Collections... -
Investigation of Mercury Toxicity in Landlocked Char in High Arctic Lakes
Data collected from landlocked char in northern Canada and Greenland indicates that 30 percent of the populations surveyed exceed toxicity thresholds for Hg in fish. Collections... -
Production and loss of methylmercury, and its uptake in lake food webs of the...
Sediment methylation and demethylation rates were measured by short-term incubations of stable isotopes of inorganic and methylmercury in sediment cores. Methylmercury... -
Microbial communities in snow and air at remote sites in the Canadian High Ar...
We sampled snow of two polar desert sites (the northern coast of Ellesmere Island in the vicinity of Ward Hunt Island and Char Lake on Cornwallis Island) for molecular and... -
Topographic LiDAR digital surface model for Resolute Bay NU
The airborne LiDAR data were collected by NASA project partners in mid-May 2006 using a chartered Canadian Twin Otter aircraft. The acquisition system consisted of a NASA... -
Arctic Willow distribution and abundance in the High Arctic (Canada and Green...
Sites were chosen in order to have populations of different ages and to cover, as much as possible, the environmental spectrum in which the species occurs. In plots of 10m10m (3...
