The Babine Lake Salmon Development Program Progress Report, 1968
Studies conducted by the Fisheries Research Board of Canada have indicated that sockeye fry densities are consistently lower in the main basin than in North Arm, despite similar densities of planktonic organisms. Basic productivity, as measured by the... -
New growth on Scales of Seaward-Migrating Sockeye Salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka)...
The purpose of this report is to compare the incidence of circuli formed after the annulus (Fig. 1) (referred to here as "new growth") on the scales of early migrants with that on scales of the late migrants for the years 1958 to 1965. -
