Skeena Salmon
Data Centre

Fisheries and Oceans Canada has been operating a gill net test fishery at Tyhee in the lower Skeena River since 1955 in order to evaluate the magnitude of Skeena River salmon and steelhead trout returns. This dataset includes the link to the Skeena Tyee...

Phase I of this project identified the user groups of the Babine River Corridor and explored methodologies including new approaches based on social networking to assess public perception of wilderness values and socially acceptable levels of sustainable use...

This report is concerned with the results of age composition sampling sockeye, pink and chum salmon catches in 1966.

The report is a short review of recent events and assesses current trends of the Skeena sockeye situation.

This paper outlines stock status for wild Skeena River sockeye salmon based on updated assessments of freshwater production in nursery lakes, available catch and escapement data, and modelled exploitation rates.

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...

This eleventh report of an annual series updates the state of physical, biological, and selected fishery resources of Canadian Pacific marine ecosystems.

This report examines the salmon habitat utilization of five species of Pacific salmon in the greater Skeena River estuary. In particular, interest is given in salmon habitat utilization in light of several large-scale industrial development projects pending...

This report summarizes age, size, and sex for the steelhead sampled at Tyee in four years (1973 - 1976) of test fishing. Comparisons are made with similar information on specific stocks in the Skeena, Kispiox, and Babine Rivers.

This report by the Wet'suwet'en Nation and Fisheries and Oceans Canada is intended as a framework towards the recovery of sockeye in the Morice Recovery Unit.

Preliminary 2021 Skeena Sockeye Forecast

The objective of this project was to conduct a Reconnaissance (1:20,000) Fish and Fish Habitat Inventory in several watersheds within the Bulkley River (BULK) watershed group. These inventories have a multi-phased approach with six phases required to...

This document provides a brief summary of the methods used to expand the time series of catch, escapement and exploitation rate estimates from the 1980-2010 estimates (English et al. 2012) back to 1960 for Skeena sockeye Conservation Units (CUs) and 1954...

This Bulkley fish passage assessment is part of a larger regional effort to improve fish passage limited by highways and secondary roads throughout the Skeena Basin. The purpose of this report is to present background information and survey results for fish...

The WSP lays out six strategies to restore and maintain healthy and diverse salmon populations and habitats, which can be grouped into three interrelated themes: Assessment, Maintaining and Rebuilding Stocks, and Accountability.

This dataset provides a link to a report from the Pacific Salmon Foundation describing the methods and results of a synoptic regional-scale overview of habitat pressures and vulnerabilities within defined ZOIs for 32 lake sockeye conservation units located...

The Pacific Salmon Foundation's Salmon Explorer includes salmon status and trends by species and region as well as an interactive map of pressures on Skeena salmon habitat.

A report studying sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) located in the North and Central Coast (NCC) of British Columbia. Given the limited resources of assessment for salmon located in these remote locations, limnological and population monitoring in many of...

This report provides an account of current participation in all BC commercial fisheries by Native individuals, companies, and organizations, background on licensing, policies and government programs affecting Native participation and base-line data for...

Evaluation of the efforts made to design a mark-recapture program that could potentially meet several objective in a cost-effective fashion.
