Biological synopsis of Pacific herring in support of marine emergency response to hydrocarbon spill events / by Jacob F. Schweigert and Matthias Herborg. : Fs97-4/3274E-PDF

"Marine emergency response activities require information on the distribution and sensitivity of potentially impacted species from incursions of deleterious substances into the environment. This report summarizes available information and studies on the characteristics of hydrocarbons released in previous spills such as Exxon Valdez, their response to weathering and the resulting effects on Pacific Herring (Clupea pallasii). The report also summarizes the general life history of Pacific Herring in British Columbia, and what is known of its distribution, relative abundance, timing of reproduction, and vulnerability to, and outcomes from, exposure to components of petroleum during various stages of its life history"--Abstract, page xi.
