Evaluation of C.P. Crane Generating Station Thermal Discharge Effects on the Finfish Community, Summer 1980

摘要

The objective of this study was to verify if patterns of abundance observed during Summer, 1980 reflected response to the thermal discharge of the power plant or if they might be attributed to other factors. Fish were collected by both trawling and gill nets at seven stations. Results indicated that the patterns previously attributed to thermal effects may be better explained by habitat preference.
