RESUME Arsenault, IT., W.L. Fairchild and S. Bastien-Daigle. 1995. Toxic Chemicals Bibliographic Database for the Gulf Region, 1950-1993. Can. Data. Rep. Fish. Aquat. Sci. 960: iii + 64p. Une recherche bibliographique exhaustive des publications scientifiques publiees entre 1950 a 1993 couvrant Ie golfe du St-Laurent a ete completee et introduite dans une banque de donnees electronique. La bibliographie ainsi cree est presentee dans ce document et contient de l'information sill· les contaminants chimiques toxiques (c.-a-d. metaux, composes organiques et organometalliques, pesticides, melanges complexes et radionuclides), leurs origines, leurs proprietes chimiques, leur devenir dans Ie milieu aquatique, leurs effets sur les poissons de mer et d'estuaire et sur l'habitat du poisson, leur accumulation dans les sediments et leur degagement subsequent. 1. INTRODUCTION The Toxic Chemicals Program of Fisheries and Oceans was initiated in the Gulf Region in 1992, wilh the objective to assess the state of contamination of fish habitats in the region. The Gulf Region encompasses the province of Prince Edward Island and all of the watersheds of the provinces of New Brunswick and Nova Scotia which flow into the Gulf of St. Lawrence. The first project initiated under the Toxic Chemicals Program was the compilation of an electronic database that includes publications such as internal reports and "gray literature" missing from more recent bibliographic on-line systems. All documentation written between 1950 and 1993, inclusively, was located with. the sources listed in Appendix I. Entries that contained general information on the Gulf of St. Lawrence in parts of the Newfoundland and Quebec provinces were also included in the bibliography. 2. DATABASE DESCRIPTION The database contains 949 references which pertain to the nature, occurrence and impact of toxic contaminants in fresh and marine waters, sediments and marine biota. The documentation covers their origin, chemical properties, fate in the aquatic environment, physical and biological impact on fish (marine and estuarine) and fish habitat, accumulation in and release from bottom sediments, etc .. The contaminants for which information was sought are listed in Appendix II. Many of these references focus on the major estuaries of concern in the Gulf Region: the Miramichi, Baie des Chaleurs, Restigouche and Nepisiguit estuaries in New Brunswick; the Pictou Harbor in Nova Scotia; the Barbara Weit and Hillsborough rivers in Prince Edward Island (Appendix III). 3. KEYWORDS The electronic database is installed in a bibliographic software called "Pro-Cite" (version 2.3) and is available for consultation at the library of the Gulf Fisheries Center in Moncton, N.B. The keywords recommended for the production of this database consisted of the main chemical family names within the main toxic contaminant categories (Appendix II) coupled with the particular areas of interest in the Gulf Region. 4. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS We wish to express sincere thanks to Ross Alexander for his advice and for reviewing the contract work statement, Paulette Levesque for her tremendous help with inter-library communications, Albert Vromans for his electronic know-how. To Dorice Caissie, Susan Johnson and Erin Taylor a special thanks for their help with the final editing of the database prior to making it available for client consultation. 2 Appendix I: On-line inquiry services consulted A.

  • Why Aren't There More Atlantic Salmon (Salmo Salar)?
    281 Why aren’t there more Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar)? Donna L. Parrish, Robert J. Behnke, Stephen R. Gephard, Stephen D. McCormick, and Gordon H. Reeves Abstract: Numbers of wild anadromous Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) have declined demonstrably throughout their native range. The current status of runs on rivers historically supporting salmon indicate widespread declines and extirpations in Europe and North America primarily in southern portions of the range. Many of these declines or extirpations can be attributed to the construction of mainstem dams, pollution (including acid rain), and total dewatering of streams. Purported effects on declines during the 1960s through the 1990s include overfishing, and more recently, changing ocean conditions, and intensive aquaculture. Most factors affecting salmon numbers do not act singly, but rather in concert, which masks the relative contribution of each factor. Salmon researchers and managers should not look for a single culprit in declining numbers of salmon, but rather, seek solutions through rigorous data gathering and testing of multiple effects integrated across space and time. Résumé : Les effectifs de saumon de l’Atlantique (Salmo salar) sauvage anadrome ont diminué notablement dans toute l’aire de répartition naturelle de l’espèce. On a observé des baisses étendues et même la disparition des remontes dans les rivières à saumon en Europe et en Amérique du Nord, surtout dans les parties méridionales de l’aire de répartition de l’espèce. Bon nombre de ces déclins ou de ces disparitions sont attribuables à la construction de barrages sur les cours principaux des rivières, à la pollution (notamment aux pluies acides) et à l’assèchement complet de certains cours d’eau.

  • The Emergence of the Pulp and Paper Industry in New Brunswick, 1918-1931
    BILL PARENTEAU The Woods Transformed: The Emergence of the Pulp and Paper Industry in New Brunswick, 1918-1931 JAMES BAXTER STOOD ON THE PODIUM at Grand Falls on 10 August 1926, overlooking the assembled crowd who had come to witness the commencement of construction at the hydro-power site. Baxter began by noting the "passing of the long lumber industry" and the impending development of pulp and paper manufacturing in New Brunswick. The inevitability of such a transformation had evidently become clear to Baxter years earlier in a dream-like sequence in Montreal, at the printing room of La Presse: "Partly closing my eyes, I could vision the forest. Looking again, I saw the newspapers rushing from the press by hundreds, until the two visions seemed to blend, and I could almost see a tree transform itself into the printed sheet". It had been "no small task to bring together all of the agencies required for this development", the premier admitted, as "[a]t the outset we found our friends at the International wishing to keep the entire field to themselves". But in the end, Baxter believed, the interests of the province and investors had been successfully reconciled and the policy of the government would be vindicated by the developments that were to follow. His concluding remarks reaffirmed the guiding principles of Conservative industrial policy: "Outside capital begins today to work for us. It asks nothing but the opportunity to do work under fair conditions. May I impress upon you as the policy of this Province, that such capital has a right to expect good faith and fair dealing on the part of the government and the people.
