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... -
Telkwa Coal Project: Aquatic Resource Assessment 1985
Studies were undertaken during 1984 to evaluate aquatic resources in the Telkwa Project study area in west-central British Columbia. Stream periphyton, invertebrates and fish populations were assessed in Goathorn and Tenas creeks and the lower Telkwa River.... -
Upper Skeena Steelhead Fry Population Monitoring
Juvenile fish sampling was conducted in the Upper Skeena area. Objectives included: to collect basic inventory data on juvenile steelhead in some "unknown" areas and to annually monitor steelhead fry recruitment where possible. The following report presents... -
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... -
