This book was released on 1996 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The NTBS was designed to address the ecological concerns about pulp mill expansion, and to increase scientific knowledge about environmental conditions [ecology, ecosystem sustainability, water pollution and control, habitat, effect on fish and fishing, etc.] in the major river systems of the north. The study's objectives were to gather and interpret sound scientific information about the basins, develop appropriate recommendations for basin management, and communicate effectively with the public. The government response report confirms the governments' commitment to ecosystem sustainability and to pollution control in northern rivers. First Nations and Metis aboriginal [native] peoples contributed significantly to the NRBS.

Download or read book Dissolved Oxygen Requirements for Fish of the Peace Athabasca and Slave River Basins written by M. A. Giles and published by The Study. This book was released on 1996 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adverse effects of low environmental oxygen on fish reproduction represents a distinct possibility in the Athabasca and Peace drainages. Species spawning in late fall and winter, such as burbot, would be the most likely to be impacted by low dissolved oxygen (DO). This report describes a study whose objective was to define the temporal changes in reproductive hormones, identify changes in blood electrolytes, haemoglobin, hematocrit, and blood oxygen content, and evaluate the viability of eggs and sperm for burbot during the period of sexual development under normal and hypoxic conditions. The results evaluate the potential of realistic winter water temperatures and hypoxic conditions to impair reproductive performance and induce stress in spawning burbot in the Northern River Basins Study area.

Download or read book Fish Collections Peace Athabasca and Slave River Basins September to December 1994 written by Toni-Lynne Jacobson and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Presents a study that collected and prepared fish from 23 sites along the Peace, Athabasca, and Slave river drainages in order to conduct physical, physiological, contaminant, and biophysical analyses. The primary fish species targeted for collection and analysis was burbot, used as a sentinel species for monitoring contaminants in northern waters because of its wide distribution, ease of catching, place at the top of the aquatic food chain, and large liver which can bioaccumulate organic compounds. Other species collected were northern pike, longnose sucker, and flathead chub. Specific analyses included gross pathology, metals, liver mixed function oxygenase induction, sex steroids and gonad morphology, retinols, metallothioneins, and basic life history information. Fish were also examined externally and internally for gross pathological abnormalities and deformities. Appendices contain descriptions of fish collection and handling protocols, as well as detailed data.

This book was released on 1997 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Presents the findings of various field and laboratory projects that studied fish distribution, movement, habitat utilization, and gross pathology in the northern Alberta river basins. Begins with a description of the river basins and related water bodies, a list of fish species found, and an overview of fish distribution and relative abundance in the mainstem rivers. This is followed by a synthesis of available information on movements of fish through space and time, as collected from fish tagging and radio telemetry studies. Movements of individual fish are also described (spawning movements and movements to summer feeding and winter habitats). Finally, critical fish habitats (spawning, feeding, and overwintering) are noted, food chain studies are summarized, and responses of fish to changes in water quality (including pathological manifestations) are reviewed.

Download or read book Advanced Industrial Wastewater Treatment and Reclamation of Water written by Swapnila Roy and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-11-20 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on industrial wastes that either join the streams or other natural water bodies directly, or are emptied into the municipal sewers, and their characteristics vary widely depending on the source of production and the raw material used by the industry, even during pre-industrial, industrial period and prospect of wastewater treatment for water resource conservation. The treatment of industrial wastewater can be done in part or as a whole either by the biological or chemical processes. Advanced treatment methods like membrane separation, ultra-filtration techniques and adsorption are elaborated. It would emphasize and facilitate a greater understanding of all existing available research, i.e., theoretical, methodological, well-established and validated empirical work, associated with the environment and climate change aspects.
