Deas Slough, Fraser River estuary, British Columbia : general description and some aquatic characteristics / by I.K. Birtwell, M.D. Nassichuk, H. Beune, and M. Gang.: Fs97-4/1926E-PDF

"This report describes aspects of the aquatic characteristics of Deas Slough and adjacent areas of the Fraser River estuary. The data were gathered during an 18-month investigation (1976, 1977), in which the main objective was to examine fish populations. The information obtained was to be used in an assessment of the effects of proposed "training walls" in the lower Fraser River. This report focuses upon relative changes in temperature, dissolved oxygen, salinity, pH, oxidation-reduction potential, and water clarity in nearshore surface waters and in the water column of Deas Slough: relevant background information is also provided. Other reports describe the studies on fish ecology (e.g., Birtwell et al. 1987). …"--Introduction, page [1].
