Tintinnids were numerically dominant in plankton samples collected from Chesterfield Inlet, Northwest Territories, in September 1978. Thirteen species were identified, 11 of which are new records for the Hudson Bay area. Tintinnopsis fimbriata and T. angusta were the most numerous tintinnids in the upper estuary at salinities below 24‰; their cell numbers were significantly positively correlated to temperature. Parafavella denticulata was the most abundant species in marine waters but it penetrated the estuary to salinities as low as 4‰. Cell numbers and volumes of P. denticulata were significantly positively correlated to salinity and negatively to chlorophyll; this species appeared to act as an almost conservative indicator of marine influence in this estuary. The distributions of the two Tintinnopsis species were not so readily explained, but maximum numbers of T. fimbriata and T. angusta corresponded to a phytoplankton maximum at station 29 in the middle estuary.

Dune vegetation changes were studied qualitatively with the aid of air photos taken in 1937, 1957 and 1976.Results were transferred to 1:10 000 scale maps. In 1937 roughly 80% of the dune forest habitat was occupied by planted fields and post cultivation serai stages such as Secondary Grasslands and Dwarf Shrubland, Secondary Scrub and Acacia karroo Woodland. In three areas, the vegetation cover had been completely destroyed and drift sands had formed. In the 1950’s the trend of vegetation degradation was changed by the implementation of an afforestation programme by the Department of Forestry. The 1976 air photos indicate that the post cultivation serai stages of 1937 had been largely replaced by forest plantations. In secondary, unafforested areas the vegetation is evolving rapidly towards a Secondary Dune Forest.
