Identification of spatial and temporal patterns in nutrient limitation with herbivory effects, Wapiti, Smoky and Athabasca Rivers, 1994 / prepared for the Northern River Basins Study under projects 2614-D1... : R71-49/3-96E-PDF

"Nutrient enrichment is one of the most common anthropogenic stressors of aquatic ecosystems and can alter the abundance, biomass and species diversity of epilithic, macroinvertebrate and fish communities. The Wapiti-Smoky and Athabasca River systems, Alberta, receive a diversity of point and non-point effluent discharges including municipal sewage, agricultural runoff and effluent from oil sands and pulp mills. To evaluate the effects of nutrient enrichment in the wapiti-Smoky and Athabasca rivers, we documented large scale patterns in epilithic biomass and nutrient limitation in these systems between 1993-1994 to determine whether nutrients added to the rivers by natural and man-made discharges cause deterioration of water quality"--Report summary.
