Largest mean standing crops for the June to November period occurred in the Steepbank, Ells, and Hangingstone Rivers, while largest mean production rates occurred in the Ells and Muskeg rivers.
Resource
12 to 40.% of streamflow during the late spring, summer and fall months consists of groundwater; the remainder comes from lake and muskeg drainage, as well as direct precipitation on stream channels
Resource
Artificial substrates were employed, water chemistry parameters measured, taxonomic identifications carried out, and productivity measurements conducted to elucidate bacterial and algal productivity
Resource
A water balance for the Athabasca River was developed which accounted for all the major withdrawals and discharges to this river. Current annual rate of withdrawal from the river is 2.34m3/s
