Clam survey, Clayoquot Sound, British Columbia - 1980 / by N. Bourne and S. Farlinger. : Fs97-4/1634E-PDF

"Results of a survey for clam resources on two beaches, Whiskey Jenny and Atleo River, in Clayoquot Sound, British Columbia are described. Of three species of commercial interest, littleneck clams, Protothaca staminea, occurred in greatest mean numbers per unit area but butter clams, Saxidomus giqanteus, had the greatest mean weight per unit area, Manila clams, Tapes philippinarum, occurred in lower abundance. Size distribution, length-weight relationships, and growth rates of these three species were made; numbers, weight, size frequency and length-weight relationships of other clam species found are also given. Clam biomass for the two beaches and for Clayoquot Sound was calculated. An estimate of the sustained yield of these clam resources for the Sound is provided"--Abstract, page iv.
