Information

The study which ran from 2015 to 2017 collected data on the water quality and temperature, periphyton, benthic invertebrates and fish populations of Curtis and Qua Creeks in the Salmo Watershed, British Columbia.

The final report by Nellestijn and Irvine (2017) assesses whether the creeks are suitable for nutrient restoration.

The data are analysed by Thorley and Dalgarno (2018)
