Impacts of flow regulation on the aquatic ecosystem of the Peace and Slave Rivers / by T.D. Prowse and M. Conly.: R71-49/4-1-E-PDF
"The Northern Rivers Basin Study was designed in late 1991 initially around ten guiding questions with an emphasis on water quality and aquatic-ecosystem health of the Peace, Athabasca, and Slave rivers. An additional six questions were added in early 1992, one of them being Question #10 “How does and how could river flow regulation impact the aquatic ecosystem?”. In December 1992, the newly formed “Hydrology” and “Other Rivers Uses” scientific component groups of the NRBS jointly began to formulate strategies on how best to respond to this question. Assessing the ecological effects of flow regulation is a worldwide problem that has received considerable scientific attention but much remains to be learned, particularly for large northern rivers, as is the central theme of the NRBS"--Introduction.
