Biogeochemical observations to assess benthic impacts of organic enrichment from marine aquaculture in the Western Iles region of the Bay of Fundy, 1994

This report adds to the growing base of marine environmental information in the Western Isles region by comparing different methods that may be used to assess changes in geotechnical, geochemical, and biological properties in subtidal sediment under salmon aquaculture sites. The investigators measured sediment profiles of modal grain size, water content, salinity, redox potentials, ammonium, sulfides, sulfate, organic carbon and nitrogen, benthic dissolved oxygen and carbon dioxide flux, and macrofauna biomass at 22 stations in the region. Eleven sites were located under salmon net-pens and 11 sites at distances over 50 meters from the pens served as reference (control) locations. The report describes the sampling and analytical methods used and presents the data for the different variables measured in the study by station number in four appendices.
