    description_en
    This research project addresses community concerns in Nunatsiavut, Labrador about the health, availability, and contaminant levels in ringed seals (Natsik) and polar bears (Nanuk), both of which are being affected by climate change. Using historical records and new field data, the study will examine how changing environmental conditions over the past 30 years have altered the diet and contaminant exposure—especially mercury—of these top Arctic predators. Initiated in response to local priorities, the project supports Inuit food security, informs conservation planning under the National Marine Conservation Areas Act, and strengthens community-based research and governance in the region.
    description_fr
    Ce projet de recherche s’attaque aux préoccupations des collectivités du Nunatsiavut, au Labrador, par rapport à la santé, à la disponibilité et à l’exposition aux contaminants des phoques annelés (Natsik) et des ours polaires (Nanuk), deux espèces touchées par les changements climatiques. À l’aide de données historiques et de nouvelles données obtenues sur le terrain, l’étude examinera comment les changements environnementaux des 30 dernières années ont modifié l’alimentation et l’exposition aux contaminants – surtout le mercure – de ces prédateurs de l’Arctique. Le projet a été lancé pour répondre aux priorités de la collectivité. Il appuie la sécurité alimentaire des Inuit, oriente la planification des efforts de conservation en vertu de la Loi sur les aires marines nationales de conservation du Canada et renforce la recherche et la gouvernance communautaires dans la région.
