Synthesis of fish distribution, movements, critical habitat and food web for the lower Slave River north of the 60th parallel : a food chain perspective / by Ross F. Tallman; major collaborators: W. Tonn,...: R71-49/4-13E-PDF
"This report brings together and synthesizes the available information on fish distribution, movements, critical habitat and food web for the lower Slave River north of the 60th parallel. The report is composed of seven major sections. The first section discusses background information, the original relevant questions posed by the NRBS, and three general models of the function of large rivers. The second section gives a description based on the literature of the environment in the lower Slave River including information on geography and surrounding habitat, climate, primary productivity and invertebrate faunal composition. The seasonal climatic variation is great and this results in striking changes in the primary productivity and composition"--Report summary.
