Biological Assessment of Skeena River Coho Salmon
This paper provides data on juvenile densities throughout the Skeena watershed in the year following record low escapements and documents the responses in escapement to the conservation measures taken in 1998. For the Babine Lake coho aggregate, advice is... -
Assessment of overwintering habitat and distribution of Coho Salmon (Oncorhyn...
This report conducts a preliminary assessment of the winter distribution of coho salmon, and the locations, suitability, and water qualities of coho overwintering habitats. -
Aquatic Stream Inventory: Operational Stream Inventory in the Morrison IRM Un...
The overall purpose of this project was to conduct fisheries inventory in operational areas identified by Houston Forest Products in the Morrison Integrated Resource Management Unit (IRM). The objectives were to conduct a literature review of inventory... -
Adult Steelhead Studies in the Upper Sustut River 1992
Steelhead studies were conducted in the upper Sustut River during the late summer and fall 1992. The objectives of the studies were to determine the time of arrival, abundance, and migration behaviour of steelhead and to assess the upper Sustut River's... -
A Survey of Day Lake and its Inlet and Outlet Streams
Recent reports of serious declines of the rainbow trout sport fishery in this region have created a need for information on the annual recruitment and relative species composition at these lakes. The most recent concern has been an outburst of beaver... -
A Review of Stock Assessment Information for Skeena River Chinook
Skeena management has changed significantly over the last decade, particularly since 1993 with the formation of the Skeena Watershed Committee. Interest, concern, and the need for chinook assessments on the Skeena are high. PSARC reviewed Skeena chinook in... -
A Reconnaissance Survey of Netalzul Meadow Lake (Alias)
Klohn-Crippen Consultants Ltd. was retained by the Fisheries Branch of the BC Ministry of Environment, Lands, and Parks in Smithers, British Columbia, to conduct a reconnaissance survey of Netalzul Meadow Lake (alias) within the Bulkley River watershed. The... -
A Life History Model for Assessing Alternative Management Policies for Depres...
Population and fishery dynamics are modelled to assess performance of alternative harvest policies for chinook that spawn in western North America. The sensitivity of model performance to variations in stock productivity and patterns of environment... -
A Biological Assessment of the Coho Salmon of the Skeena River, British Colum...
This assessment covers coho salmon of the Skeena River. The status of coho populations grouped by sub-regions is presented, and recommendations are made for the further development of an assessment program for Skeena and other North Coast coho stocks. -
1:5,000 Fish and Fish Habitat Inventory in the Kispiox Watershed
The objectives of this study were to conduct fish and fish habitat inventories, using 1:20,000 scale maps, to classify stream reaches within or adjacent to proposed timber harvesting areas as per Forest Practises Code regulations. The information in each... -
1999 Lower Skeena River Sport Catch Monitoring Programs
The objectives of this study were to monitor the encounter rates of all species landed by angles in each fishery, report and assess the gear used in the fisheries, and assess the release condition of all salmon, with an emphasis on coho. -
