Physical Factors Implicated in Reduced Barnacle {Balanus glandula Darwin) populations at the Squamish Estuary, B.C.
The survival, growth and fecundity of a transplanted barnacle population at the Squamish estuary, British Columbia, were studied for one year. The
transplanted barnacles were found to show poor survival, fecundity and growth compared to a control population in West Vancouver. These were related
to the prevailing stress conditions of low, fluctuating salinity and high turbidity at the estuary.

Fisheries and Marine Service Manuscript Reports
- Issue identification
-
These reports contain scientific and technical information that represents an important contribution to existing knowledge but which for some reason may not be appropriate for primary scientific (i.e. Journal) publication. They differ from Technical Reports in terms of subject scope and potential audience: Manuscript Reports deal primarily with national or regional problems and distribution is generally restricted to institutions or individuals located in particular regions of Canada. No restriction is placed on subject matter and the series reflects the broad interests and policies of the Fisheries and Marine Service, namely, fisheries management, technology and development, ocean sciences and aquatic environ ments relevant to Canada.
- Purpose
-
Experiments were designed to compare the growth, fecundity and mortality of a barnacle population at the West Vancouver Laboratory, West Vancouver
(the "control" station) with that of a transplanted barnacle population at the Squamish delta
