Our pre-research consultations indicated that contaminant monitoring (namely Hg-mercury) is a priority for Arviat, in the WHB. With a focus on mercury concentrations we considered local contexts, and re-interpreted historical Hg datasets. With a clear harvest preference between communities, we determined the the EBS beluga may have had over-estimated Hg concentrations. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd3e0705e27e16af11056c2/1607805453127-4UPKI5WNTJTLEWH8MX16/seal+ice.jpg Research & Affiliations - Nattiq - Ringed Seal For my Master of Science project, I worked out of Iqaluit, Nunavut. With the goal of assessing ringed seal health, I used both Western methods and Inuit observations of seal health to start to gain a wholistic view of nattiq health. Examining harvested seals, we measured contaminant loads (Hg, Se, Cd, Fe), antibodies, and body metrics. I also conducted qualitative interviews with local Inuit harvesters to understand how hunters examine nattiq health , food preparation, and any changes in nattiq abundance over time.

Such projects include Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) of National Parks, animal tracking with geotags, and LiDAR. The largest project partnered with the city of Louisville, KY, to determine the solar potential of two areas in the city.
