Early January 1978, cutting hole through first year lake ice for methane addition apparatus.
July 1st, 1978 - marking fish for recapture study, Saqvaqjuac. 314 lake trout marked that day in 7-hectare Spring Lake.

Saqvaqjuac was a 465 m2 Arctic research camp located on the north side of Chesterfield Inlet, Kivalliq Region, Nunavut, Canada, 35 km north-northwest of the hamlet of Chesterfield Inlet.[1] It was opened in 1977, operated every year until 1982, and last used in 1988. Research subjects included whole-lake methane addition,[2] phosphorus and nitrogen eutrophication experiments,[3] and long-range atmospheric transport.[4] The project was operated by the Freshwater Institute, part of Fisheries and Oceans Canada.
