Decreasing river discharge in northern Canada

[1] Freshwater discharge to high-latitude oceans in 64 Canadian rivers is investigated. The mean annual discharge rate attains 1252 km yr 1 for an area of 5.6 10 km, equating to a sink of 225 mm yr 1 in the surface water budget of northern Canada (excluding the Arctic Archipelago where insufficient data exist). Application of the Mann-Kendall test to the data reveals a 10% decrease ( 125 km yr ...

Northern exposures: cleaning up Canada.

were significantly increased after a 24h fast compared to control mice with identical dietary histories. Hepatic glycogen levels were lower at the start of the fasting period in the tumour-bearing mice as were the fat stores. The loss of adipose tissue during the fasting period was greater in the tumour-bearing mice. After 48 h of fasting, the ketonaemia was significantly lower in the tumour-be...

Invasive Bacterial Diseases in Northern Canada

International Circumpolar Surveillance (ICS) is a population-based invasive bacterial disease surveillance network. Participating Canadian regions include Yukon, Northwest Territories, Nunavut, and northern regions of Québec and Labrador (total population 132,956, 59% aboriginal). Clinical and demographic information were collected by using standardized surveillance forms. Bacterial isolates we...
