lakes along a transect across the Western Interior Platform to the central portion of the Slave …

We report on recent geoscience data collected by the Geological Survey of Canada in
collaboration with Northwest Territories Geoscience Office and Carleton University. Fifty …

Anthropogenic arsenic inputs into fresh water lakes in the Quinsam watershed, British
Columbia, were probed by using multiple methods of inquiry including sediment coring …

Century old mine tailings in the Cobalt and Silver Center areas are widely dispersed
throughout the terrestrial and aquatic environments and contain high concentrations of …

Abstract Elevated arsenic (As> 0.01 mg L− 1) in some domestic well water in the Cold Lake
area of Alberta, Canada is of great concern for public health. To determine possible sources …

Abstract The sediments of Frame Lake, Yellowknife, NWT were examined to evaluate
