Study Site: Dehcho and South Slave regions of the Northwest Territories and Dene Tha' First Nation lands of northern Alberta
Purpose: Water samples were collected to investigate the influence of climate and landscape on inland waters of the region and includes water data for methylmercury, mercury, dissolved organic carbon, metals, and ions.
Abstract: This project sampled 93 streams and rivers three times, once in each of July 2021, June 2022, and August 2022 throughout the Dehcho and South Slave regions of the Northwest Territories and Dene Tha' First Nation lands of northern Alberta.
