Synopsis of research conducted under the 2003-2004 Northern Contaminants Program

This report provides a summary of the progress to date of research and monitoring studies on contaminants in northern Canada, and related education, communications and policy activities that were conducted in 2003-2004 under the auspices of the Northern Contaminants Program (NCP). The projects cover all aspects of northern contaminants issues, as outlined in the NCP blueprints, including human health, monitoring the health of Arctic peoples and ecosystems and the effectiveness of international controls (abiotic monitoring and modelling, and biotic monitoring), education and communications, international policy and program management. These projects were evaluated, as proposals, by external peer reviewers, technical review teams, a social/cultural review team, territorial/regional contaminants committee and the NCP Management Committee to ensure that they support the overall Northern Contaminants Program objectives
