Evaluation of the effects of habitat restoration on fish species at risk within Crown Marsh, Long Point Bay, Lake Erie, Ontario / N.A. Rook ... [et al.].: Fs70-5/2016-059E-PDF
"The purpose of this research is to determine if the restoration of Long Point Crown Marsh, Lake Erie was beneficial for fishes and supported local fish recovery efforts as there are five fish species at risk found in this region. Crown Marsh has been invaded by the invasive common reed (Phragmites australis). To restore the habitat and provide more open water, dredging occurred to create ponds connected to Long Point Bay. To evaluate the effect of this habitat restoration on fishes, Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) and the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry (OMNRF) sampled six ponds from 2012 to 2014. Four created ponds and two reference ponds with minimal human disturbance were sampled using enclosure seining methods"--Abstract, p.iv.
