Bird surveys at McKinley Bay and Hutchison Bay, Northwest Territories, in 1990 / by Beth J. Cornish, D. Lynne Dickson and H. Loney Dickson.: CW69-5/126E-PDF

"Monitoring surveys of bird abundance and distribution were conducted in 1990 at McKinley Bay, NWT, the site of a winter harbour for drillships and proposed location for a major year-round support base for oil and gas exploration. The 1990 surveys represented a continuation of a long-term monitoring study of birds in McKinley Bay and Hutchison Bay, a nearby area used as a control. Primary objectives of the 1990 surveys were to determine whether diving duck numbers had changed since the initial phase of the study from 1981 to 1985, and to provide additional baseline data on natural annual fluctuations in diving duck numbers"--Abstract, p. i.
