Assessment of Sockeye Fry Passage at the Babine River Adult Salmon Counting F...
Skeena Fisheries Commission (SFC) conducted a study to investigate whether the Babine River Counting Fence prevented sockeye fry that drifted downstream of the structure from migrating back upstream to suitable rearing habitat in June 2015. An engineering... -
Update Assessment of Sockeye Salmon Production from Babine Lake, British Colu...
Wood et al. (1998) provided the last formal assessment of sockeye production from Babine Lake using production data spanning the 1950-1996 return years (1950-1991 brood years). This update adds 14 more years to the data series (1950-2010 return years,... -
Review and Assessment of Water Quality in the Skeena River Watershed, British...
Historical water quality data presented for the Skeena River watershed are divided into nine subsequent sections, corresponding to the nine major watershed reaches. Each section is divided into 6 subsections: hydrology, land use history, water withdrawals,... -
Research Document 2001/098: Factors Limiting Juvenile Sockeye Production
This report presents summaries of data collected from 60 B.C sockeye nursery lakes between 1977 and 2000. Factors which constrain sockeye production in each lake and, where possible, make recommendations on the technique(s) most likely to increase stock... -
Report of the Skeena Independent Science Review Panel
The Panel’s report is divided into five major topic areas: (1) the fish and the fisheries, (2) habitat status and protection, (3) critical monitoring needs for future management, (4) governance, and (5) recommendations. -

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. -
Benchmark Analysis for Lake Sockeye Conservation Units (CUs) in the Skeena
This project estimates benchmarks and status' for all conservation units (CUs) in the Skeena watershed. -
Babine River Coho Beach Seining Program
Commencing in 1998, Babine River coho fry were strategically enhanced by conducting fry and smolt releases. A survival comparison of the fry versus smolt releases was intended to determine if fry releases into the Babine system could be used to increase the... -

This report provides a comprehensive assessment of sockeye production from the Babine-Nilkitkwa system in that it brings together, for the first time in many years, recently compiled information on trends in spawning escapements by run timing group, fry... -
Assessment of Freshwater Production of Sockeye Salmon in Babine Lake
This paper is intended as the first step towards a comprehensive assessment of the status of Babine Lake sockeye salmon. The primary objective of this paper is to assess the status of freshwater production of salmon in Babine lake and to provide corrected... -
Application of Microsatellite DNA Variation to Estimation of Stock Compositio...
Microsatellite loci can be used to estimate spawning escapements of individual Pacific salmon populations returning to remote spawning locations throughout large river systems by analysis of appropriately weighted samples from test fisheries near the river... -
A Risk Assessment Model for Skeena River Sockeye Salmon
This paper presents a risk assessment simulation model for Skeena River sockeye salmon harvested in marine and in-river fisheries in northern British Columbia. This paper also provides production and stock status background for Skeena River sockeye lakes.... -
