What is the status of benthic communities in Lake Saint-Pierre? / prepared by: Alain Armellin.: En153-114/7-2017E-PDF
"Benthic macroinvertebrates—insects, worms and molluscs that live on the bottom of lakes and rivers—can be used to determine whether environmental conditions are good or show signs of disturbance. Based on biomonitoring studies conducted by Environment and Climate Change Canada scientists, the status of the benthic communities in Lake Saint-Pierre between 2012 and 2014 was classified as moderate-good; these communities have shown signs of improvement since 2006"--Highlight, p. [1].
