Summary:
This study is designed to investigate various measures of small fish health at a number of locations along the Mackenzie River. The researchers want to find out if small fish health is different near oil seepages and the islands at Norman Wells than in other parts of the river. Also, the researchers will investigate fish and benthic invertebrate abundance and species composition at selected strea...
