Managing Biodiversity in Pacific Salmon: the Evolution of the Skeena River Sockeye Salmon Fishery in British Columbia
This report discusses the trade-off fisheries managers are faced with that remains unresolved – how to reap the benefits from commercially valuable stocks while maintaining... -
Movement patterns, timing of migration and genetic population structure of bull trout in the Morice River Watershed, British Columbia
This thesis aims to determine if bull trout within a single large watershed show multiple life history forms, if their movement is influenced by environmental variables of... -
Chemical, Biological and Physical Characteristics of Lakelse Lake
The chemical, biological and physical characteristics of Lakelse Lake, B.C., were investigated during 1974-1975. This report also summarizes relevant fisheries - limnological... -

This memo provides estimates of Skeena sockeye sub-stock timing and abundance entering Area 3⁄4 estimated using genetic (mDNA) samples collected from the Skeena River Tyee Test... -
Scale Characteristics of Sockeye Salmon Originating from Small Nursery Areas of the Skeena River System
The objective of this study has been to assemble the data available concerning the scale characteristics of sockeye salmon spawning in a series of isolated locations within the... -
Population Structure of Lake-Type and River-Type Sockeye Salmon in Transboundary Rivers of Northern British Columbia
The objective of the present study was to evaluate microsatellite genetic differentiation between lake-type and riverine populations within the same river drainage, among... -
Phenological Diversity of Salmon Smolt Migration Timing within a Large Watershed
This paper quantifies phenological diversity of out-migration timing among salmon populations within a large watershed and its implications for climate mismatches with marine... -

Microsatellite Diversity Assessment of Steelhead Population Structure Before and After Hatchery Operation in the Kitimat River, Skeena Region, British Columbia
Allelic variation at 10 microsatellite loci was assayed in steelhead trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) scale samples (n=333) collected in various years 1976-2003, from the lower... -
Microgeographic genetic diversity of wild steelhead trout in a conservation hatchery operated coastal river: How wild are they?
Allelic variation at 10 microsatellite loci was assayed in potentially wild steelhead trout collected from 11 tributaries and three upper main stem river sites, and compared to... -
Lakelse Lake Draft Management Plan
The lake management planning process devises methods “to preserve and protect the quality and health of the Lakelse watershed”. This management plan marks the end of the first... -
Fine-Scaled Population Genetic Structure and Dispersal of Juvenile Steelhead in the Bulkley-Morice River, British Columbia
This study used microsatellite markers to characterize fine-scale population structures among populations of juvenile steelhead from tributaries of the Bulkley-Morice River. It... -
Estimation of Stock Composition and Individual Identification of Sockeye Salmon on a Pacific Rim Basis Using Microsatellite and Major Histocompatibility Complex Variation
In the current study, we evaluate the utility of using the variation at 14 microsatellite loci and one MHC locus for lake-specific identification of sockeye salmon over its... -

Bioassessment of Streams in North Central British Columbia Using the Reference Condition Approach: Final Report V.2
In this project, a bioassessment tool known as the Reference Condition Approach (RCA) was developed for north-central British Columbia. In the RCA, benthic invertebrates and... -
Application of Microsatellite DNA Variation to Estimation of Stock Composition and Escapement of Skeena River Sockeye Salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka)
Microsatellite loci can be used to estimate spawning escapements of individual Pacific salmon populations returning to remote spawning locations throughout large river systems... -
A Risk Assessment Model for Skeena River Sockeye Salmon
This paper presents a risk assessment simulation model for Skeena River sockeye salmon harvested in marine and in-river fisheries in northern British Columbia. This paper also... -
