This book was released on 2000 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to determine the spawning status of striped bass (Morone saxatilis) in the Kouchibouguac and Richibucto estuaries, eastern New Brunswick, in 1997 & 1998. In the spring and summer of both years, the pelagic spawning & littoral rearing habitat of the estuaries were sampled for ichthyoplankton and juvenile fish. The secondary objective was to use the sampling surveys to describe the fish communities of the estuaries during the ice-free seasons. The surveys were intended to detect any major differences in species assemblages between these two small neighbouring estuaries. The final section discusses species composition, striped bass spawning status, and the presence of young-of-the-year striped bass.

Download or read book Encyclopedia of Hydrology and Water Resources written by Reginald W. Herschy and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1998-07-31 with total page 793 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fresh water supplies of the Earth are finite and as the world's population continues to grow humanity's thirst for this water seems unquenchable. Intense pressure is being exerted upon freshwater resources and a lack of adequate clean water is seen as one of the most serious global problems for the 21st century. Indeed it has been said that the next war will be fought over water, not oil. Human health and the health of supporting ecosystems increasingly depends upon our ability to find, control, manage and understand water. In a single volume, The Encyclopedia of Hydrology and Water Resources provides the reader with a comprehensive overview and understanding of the diverse field of hydrology. The intimate inclusion of material on water resources emphasizes the practical applications of this field, applications which are indispensable in any modern approach to the subject. This volume is a vital reference for all hydrologists, hydrogeologists and water engineers worldwide, whether they are concerned with the exploitation of new sources of water, the protection and management of existing reserves, or the science of surface water and groundwater flow. 114 eminent scientists from 17 countries worldwide have contributed to this authoritative volume. Superbly illustrated throughout, it includes almost 300 entries on a range of key topics, including arid and semi-arid zones, climates and climate change, floods and droughts, desertification, entropy, flow measurement, groundwater, hydrological cycle, hydrological models, infiltration, karst hydrology, paleohydrology, precipitation, remote sensing, river pollution prevention, rivers, lakes and seas, satellite hydrology, soil erosion, water treatment, water use, weather radar, and world water balance.
