Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this paper is to document the role & key decisions of the Department of Fisheries & Oceans, Western Arctic Area, Fish Habitat Management, related to the regulation of seismic exploration in the Northwest Territories from 2002 to May 2003. The paper begins with an overview of the history of hydrocarbon exploration & development in the Territories and the relevant regulatory regime. It then reviews the types of seismic exploration used in the Territories and describes research projects & lessons learned related to the effects of seismic exploration on fish & the environment. These projects examined the effects of marine three-dimensional seismic exploration using air guns, riverine two-dimensional seismic exploration using air guns, and land-based two- & three-dimensional seismic exploration using explosives.

Book excerpt: The Second International Conference on the Effects of Noise on Aquatic Life will take place in Ireland August 15-20, 2010. The main emphasis of the conference will be on defining the current state of knowledge. However, we will also assess progress in the three years since the First conference. The Second conference will place strong emphasis on recent research results, the sharing of ideas, discussion of experimental approaches, and analysis of regulatory issues.

Download or read book Offshore Oil and Gas Environmental Effects Monitoring written by Shelley L. Armsworthy and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 658 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Offshore oil and gas drilling operations take place in some of the world's most biologically productive oceanic waters. An ongoing concern related to the development of this industry is that exposure to contaminants from waste discharges may cause ill effects on organisms and their habitat. Environmental Effects Monitoring (EEM) programs are undertaken to verify environmental impact assessment predictions, to detect any unforeseen effects, and to help identify cause-effect relationships. EEM has been carried out worldwide for many offshore developments, and much has been learned about the fate of drilling and production contaminants and their biological effects. EEM programs have rapidly evolved in response to new knowledge on the transport, fate, and effects of potential contaminants; changes in regulatory requirements; and improved impact assessment technologies and statistical approaches for data interpretation. In May 2003, an international group of scientists, environmental managers, and industry representatives shared their expertise and new knowledge at the Offshore Oil and Gas Environmental Effects Monitoring Workshop. The participants reviewed the status of current offshore oil and gas EEM programs and identified future research needs to advance our understanding of the impacts of the offshore oil and gas industry. This book represents a selected number of peer-reviewed papers from workshop participants, covering a range of topics including regional experience from past and ongoing EEM programs; environmental management issues such as risk assessment and decision-making processes; the development of predictive risk assessment models; and new approaches and technologies formonitoring potential alterations in benthic, pelagic, and tropospheric ecosystem components. This book will be of use to scientists, environmental managers, regulators, and industry representatives, as well as members of the general public wishing to improve their understanding on the application of offshore oil and gas EEM programs for the protection of our ocean environment and its resources.
Download or read book Testing Fish Deterrents for Use Under ice in the Mackenzie Delta Area written by Roberto G. Racca and published by [Calgary] : Environmental Studies Research Funds. This book was released on 2004 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Non-contact deterrent technologies, both acoustic & visual, are often used in aquatic settings in lieu of physical barriers to address the threat posed to fish by industrial operations. The goal of this study was to determine the efficacy of portable, temporary deterrents as a means of excluding fish from areas of detonation activities associated with seismic exploration in Mackenzie Delta lakes. Trials were conducted in 2003 at a lake near Inuvik using whitefish, inconnu, lake trout, and northern pike. Groups of fish were equipped with orally inserted acoustic tags, placed in an experimental net pen, and monitored via a fish tracking system that produced a detailed swimming pattern, thereby revealing behavioural responses. A multi-frequency sound projector and a strobe light were tested as deterrents. Results are presented & discussed and suggestions are made regarding a satisfactory deterrent.
Download or read book Field based Feasibility Study of Teleseismic Surveys at High Northern Latitudes Northwest Territories and Nunavut written by David Snyder and published by Natural Resources Canada. This book was released on 2002 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Self-contained seismic stations have been established & operated in remote areas of the Canadian north in order to assess their performance throughout the year. This paper reports on the deployment of eight such stations between September 1999 and September 2001. Three of the station sites were located in central Baffin Island and the remainder among the diamond exploration camps of the Slave Province north of Yellowknife. The paper includes a description of the equipment used, some logistics of the deployments, statistics about the recording of earthquake data, and examples of the data recorded & its preliminary analysis.
Download or read book Treatise on Geophysics written by and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2015-04-17 with total page 5604 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Treatise on Geophysics, Second Edition, is a comprehensive and in-depth study of the physics of the Earth beyond what any geophysics text has provided previously. Thoroughly revised and updated, it provides fundamental and state-of-the-art discussion of all aspects of geophysics. A highlight of the second edition is a new volume on Near Surface Geophysics that discusses the role of geophysics in the exploitation and conservation of natural resources and the assessment of degradation of natural systems by pollution. Additional features include new material in the Planets and Moon, Mantle Dynamics, Core Dynamics, Crustal and Lithosphere Dynamics, Evolution of the Earth, and Geodesy volumes. New material is also presented on the uses of Earth gravity measurements. This title is essential for professionals, researchers, professors, and advanced undergraduate and graduate students in the fields of Geophysics and Earth system science. Comprehensive and detailed coverage of all aspects of geophysics Fundamental and state-of-the-art discussions of all research topics Integration of topics into a coherent whole

Download or read book Breaking the Ice written by Barry Scott Zellen and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2008 with total page 454 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Breaking the Ice is a comparative study of the movement for native land claims and indigenous rights in Alaska and the Western Arctic, and the resulting transformation in domestic politics as the indigenous peoples of the North gained an increasingly prominent role in the governance of their homeland. This work is based on field research conducted by the author during his nine-year residency in the Western Arctic. Zellen discusses the major conflicts facing Alaskan Natives, from the struggle to regain control over their land claims to the Native alienation from the corporate structure and culture and the resulting resurgence in tribalism. He shows that while the forces of modernism and traditionalism continued to clash, these conflicts were mediated by the structures of co-management, corporate development, and self-government created by the region's comprehensive land claims settlements. Breaking the Ice gives testimony to the achievements of Alaskan Natives through peaceful negotiation, and argues that the age of land claims has transmuted this same tribal force into something else altogether in the North: a peaceful force to spawn the emergence of new structures of Aboriginal self-governance.
