Final status assessment of BUI 13 phytoplankton and zooplankton populations for the Bay of Quinte area of concern / by Warren J.S. Currie, Kelly L. Bowen, Heather A. Niblock, Mark A.J. Fitzpatrick, Robin... : Fs97-4/3261E-PDF

"The “Degradation of Phytoplankton and Zooplankton Populations” Beneficial Use Impairment (BUI 13) for the Bay of Quinte Area of Concern (AOC) has been designated as impaired since the site was listed under the Canada – United States Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement. This analysis provides a final assessment by Fisheries and Oceans Canada, based on the 47 years of sampling for Project Quinte from 1972 – 2018. This assessment provides a refined list of 10 metrics (reduced from the possible 26 proposed in 2017) for phytoplankton, zooplankton and microbial populations that can be used to track improvements in the system. This assessment finds that while there have been some long-term improvements in the planktonic communities indices, food web function and trophic transfer continue to be significantly impaired"--Abstract.
