Assessment of 1979 herring spawnings in the Meares Island section of Clayoquot Sound, British Columbia / by C.W. Haegele and D.C. Miller. : Fs97-4/1547E-PDF ; Fs97-4/1547

"In the Meares Island section of Clayoquot Sound, herring spawn mostly on extensive beds of eelgrass. A diver survey of herring spawnings was conducted in this area in 1979 to obtain the best possible estimate of egg deposition because estimates obtained from surface surveys seemed unrealistic. The survey showed that 3.7859 x 1012 eggs were deposited on 4.0028 x 10⁶ m² area. The large Elbow Bank had 50% of this spawn on 35% of the area. Sea grasses occupied 94% of the spawn area. Most of the spawn was subtidal"--Abstract, page iii.
