Ecotoxicology of depositional sediments : Athabasca River, May and September, 1993 / by Kristin Day and T. B. Reynoldson.R71-49/3-59E

This project was designed to test the toxicity of depositional sediments from the upper Athabasca River using freshwater benthic invertebrates in chronic exposure studies under laboratory conditions. Additional analyses were performed on the in situ benthic invertebrate community structure to describe species distribution and abundance. Information from these tests will be used to determine cumulative effects of the Hinton combined effluent by comparing upstream and downstream sites.-Study perspective
