Diel Vertical Movements and Feeding Habits of Underyearling Sockeye Salmon (O...
Sockeye underyearlings at Babine Lake. B.C. were observed to undergo diel vertical movement from July through to October 1967. This movement was more pronounced in August when the lake was most distinctly thermally stratified. The presence of a sharp... -
Orientation Differences Between Populations of Juvenile Sockeye Salmon
British Columbia's Babine Lake system has three populations of sockeye salmon smolts which travel different routes to the outlet on their seaward migration. The objective of this study was to determine if the directional preferences of these populations are... -
Assessment of Wild Steelhead Abundance Trends in British Columbia (1967/68-19...
Intra-regional similarities and inter-regional differences in wild steelhead (Oncorhynchus mykiss) abundance patterns over time throughout British Columbia were identified using Catch-per-Angler-Day (CpAD) as an index of abundance of wild in-river adult... -

This paper presents data collected during a creel census conducted in the years 1978 and 1979, and includes information on angler harvest and success, and life histories of Zymoetz-Clore steelhead. -
Value of Information in Pacific Salmon Fishery Management: the Skeena River T...
A Monte Carlo simulation model of the commercial gillnet fishery for sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) returning to the Skeena River, British Columbia, is used to evaluate the benefits of forecasts of annual returns of sockeye salmon based on test fishery... -
The Socio-Economic Importance of Maintaining the Quality of Recreational Reso...
This paper reports on a series of surveys conducted during the summer of 1973 to determine the economic and social value of Lakelse Lake to residents of British Columbia. The study contains information on the lake's commercial and recreational activities... -
The Salinity Intrusion of the Skeena River Observations of Salinities, Temper...
Observations of salinities, temperatures and currents are presented in the form of vertical profiles at stations in the lower reaches of the Skeena River and in the approaches to the estuary. The data were obtained at freshet conditions in the summer of... -
Skeena Salmon Test Fishery 1987
Information relating to the Skeena River gillnet test fishery program for 1987 and a summary for the years 1955 to 1976 is presented in this report. Daily catch of all salmon species (Oncorhynchus~) and steelhead trout (Salmo gairdneri) are detailed by set... -
Radio-Telemetry Studies of Summer Run Steelhead Trout in the Skeena River, 19...
The primary objective of this study was to identify the specific stocks of steelhead as they enter the Skeena and determine their rate of movement within the Skeena River drainage. Methods of live-capturing fish in large rivers were also evaluated. -
Provisional Estimates of Numbers and Biomass for Natural-Origin and Hatchery-...
This report provides provisional abundance estimates for pink, chum, and sockeye salmon in major regions of the North Pacific from 1952 through 2015 in terms of: numbers of natural- origin and hatchery-origin salmon returns (i.e., catch plus escapement),... -
North and Central Coast Salmon Escapement, Catch, Run Size and Exploitation R...
This report provides details on the methods used to convert the escapement estimates for indicator stream into total escapement estimates for each SA and CU as well as a description of the methods used to estimate the exploitation rates needed to compute... -
Morice Lake Nutrient Samples
Nutrient samples (surface) were collected at four intervals at 11 stations on Morice Lake during the period June 1973 to September 1973. The samples were analyzed to determine mean concentrations of total phosphorus, Nitrogen, and Ammonia. -
Maternal Influences on the Age at Maturity of Skeena River Sockeye Salmon (On...
The purpose of these studies was to examine maternal influences on age at maturity of Skeena River sockeye salmon which, when considered along with several other correlated phenomena, lead to an hypothesis of alternation of generations. -
Manuscript Report Series No.1189: Purse Seine Catches of Sockeye Salmon and O...
This report gives details of the catches of sockeye and other species of fish made in the course of fishing to recover marked sockeye during the spring, summer and fall after their entry into the lake beginning in 1971. -
Manuscript Report Series No.1075: Purse Seine Catches of Sockeye Salmon and O...
This report deals with the catches of sockeye and other species of fish made in the course of fishing for marked sockeye during the spring, summer and fall after their entry into the Babine Lake (1966-1968). -
Environmental Studies on the Morice-Nanika Watershed Interim Report (1975)
B.C. Hydro has proposed developing various resources for meeting future electric power requirements of the province. The main resources included are: hydro-electric power, coal, oil, natural gas, wood waste, and geo-thermal power. Prior to any development... -
Comparison of the Fecundity of Sockeye Salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) in the Ske...
Skeena River sockeye salmon are caught by the fishery mainly with gillnets. It is generally recognized that gillnets are selective for size. Foskett (1958) compared the size of sockeye sampled from the Rivers Inlet catch with the size of those sampled from... -
Chemical and Biological studies of Babine Lake
Because of the increasing industrial operations and rapidly growing human activities on the watershed of Babine Lake there have been many multi—disciplinary studies carried out in this area to study their possible impacts on the water quality and fish... -
Biophysical Stream Survey of Fourteen Sockeye Streams Tributary to Babine-Nil...
This stream inventory aims to employ a biophysical method of aquatic systems inventory to the fourteen sockeyes streams, experiment with methodology based on low-level Arial inventory, and provide Fisheries Service personnel with a better data base.
