1982 Investigations of Adult Coho Salmon in the Telkwa River
A study to provide more detailed information on the timing and distribution of adult coho salmon spawning in the Telkwa River Basin was conducted between September and December 1982. Five tributary streams and the mainstem Telkwa River were examined for the... -
Evaluating Relationships between Wild Skeena River Sockeye Salmon Productivit...
In Canada’s Skeena Watershed, smolt-to-adult survival of Babine Lake sockeye from 1962–2002 was inversely related to the abundance of sockeye smolts leaving Babine Lake. This relationship has led to the concern that Babine Lake smolt production, which is... -
Trophic Status and Rearing Capacity of Smaller Sockeye Nursery Lakes in the S...
This report attempts to predict rearing capacity and optimum escapements for ten non-Babine study lakes around the Skeena River. Its main objectives are recognizing the status of juvenile stocks and trophic status of the ten lakes, along with potential... -
Suskwa River Steelhead Trout: the Colonization of Harold-Price Creek with Hat...
This report addresses itself to the following sequence of events in 1979: the capture of adult steelhead in the lower Suskwa River for egg collection purposes, the hatchery rearing of fry from Suskwa donor stock, the introduction of hatchery produced Suskwa... -
Suskwa River Steelhead Trout: The 1977 Inventory, Creel Survey and Life Histo...
The 1977 aspect of the Suskwa River project began in July and continued until freeze-up in November. Fish were sampled either with "Gees" traps or by angling. The inventory crew switched to a casual creel survey and an adult steelhead tagging program during... -
Rationale and Follow-up on Terminating Nutrient Treatment of Morice Lake
Returns of sockeye salmon to the Morice-Nanika production system (tributary to the Skeena River) routinely exceeded 60,000 pieces prior to 1950. Between 1950 and 1955 escapements declined precipitously to only a few thousand adults and this condition has... -
Proposed Sockeye Salmon Development Program for Babine Lake
The purpose of this report is to review evidence bearing on the potential of Babine lake as a sockeye producer and examine means by which the potential may be exploited. -
PSF Climate Adaptation Workshop: State of Salmon and Climate Change Considera...
A link to a recording of the Pacific Salmon Foundation 2021 Climate Adaptation Workshop hosted by the Pacific Salmon Foundation. The goal of this workshop was to bring together salmon scientists and stewards to discuss issues, challenges and solutions... -
Morice-Nanika Sockeye Recovery: Evaluation of Enhancement Options
The purpose of this report is to present the known history of sockeye production data, the biological and management information available, enhancement requirements, and potential techniques for the restoration of Morice-Nanika sockeye. -
Behaviour and Ecology of Sockeye Salmon Fry in the Babine River
A study of the behaviour of sockeye salmon fry during emergence and migration, along with an observation of the different stages of their lives. -
Babine lake Sockeye Salmon (Oncorhynchus Nerka) Enhancement Program: Testing ...
This paper serves as an after study to the Babine Lake Sockeye Enhancement Program and its assumptions. These assumptions are as follows: The artificial spawning channels provide an effective means of producing sockeye fry, the fry are viable from their... -
Babine Lake Sockeye Salmon: Stock Status and Forecasts for 1998
This paper aims to provide a comprehensive assessment of sockeye production from the Babine-Nilkitkwa system it brings together recently (~1990s) compiled information on trends in spawning escapements by run timing group, fry recruitment, smolt production,... -
Assessment of the Babine Lake Sockeye Development Program
This assessment aims to determine if the production of adult sockeye is directly attributable to the Babine Development Project and study the factors limiting production of Babine Lake Sockeye. -
2018-2022 Implementation Plan - Wild Salmon Policy
The WSP lays out six strategies to restore and maintain healthy and diverse salmon populations and habitats, which can be grouped into three interrelated themes: Assessment, Maintaining and Rebuilding Stocks, and Accountability.
