"This is the first Manuscript Report in this series from the Biological Station, St. Andrews, N.B." Includes bibliographical references (page 7). The purpose of the 1975 Northumberland Strait Project was to provide a baseline description of the physical and biological environment of the Strait in relation to the commercial shellfish resources. The resulting physical and biological data are presented in this first of two data-repository reports. In the 8 1/2-wk survey, 96 stations were sampled for fauna and flora with a van Veen grab and a beam trawl or scallop dredge. Species lists show distribution and empirical estimates of abundance of polychaetes, amphipods and the other invertebrate taxa, demersal fish, and algae. The depth and bottom temperature recordings describe the physical conditions during the survey. Depth and bottom temperature were criteria used to summarize the biomass listings of the major taxonomic groups. A description of sediments and their distribution was made from samples obtained with a van Veen grab, piston cores (Alpine corer), and dredges. The core samples were analyzed for heavy metal content. Includes abstracts in English and French. Benthos Northumberland Strait. Benthos Northumberland, Détroit de.
