Sediment attributes and infaunal abundance in Simoom Sound, British Columbia, Canada / by Terri F. Sutherland, Colin D. Levings, Shane A. Petersen, Perry Poon, Mike McDermid, Sheila C. Byers, and G. Elizabeth...: Fs97-13/1366E-PDF
"This study covers the benthic component of a broader project investigating potential modification of marine ecosystems by shrimp trawling and trapping on the central coast of British Columbia. Sediment and infaunal samples were collected before and after fishing with commercial fishing gear consisting of otter-trawl, beam-trawl, and trap-lines. Simoom Sound was sampled in November 2000 and February 2001. Tabulated data of sediment characteristics that include sediment grain size, porosity, carbon and nitrogen content, trace-element, and chlorophyll concentrations are presented in this report. In addition, the infaunal data are comprised of both macrofaunal and meiofaunal communities"--Abstract.
