His understanding of ecological processes was unrivaled, and his contributions to this document were tremendous. Since his passing preceded the publication of this Status Review, he was not able to see the completion of this project. We would also like to acknowledge Jerry Marancik’s early contributions to this project. He was a BRT member until he retired in the spring of 2004. At that time, Scott Craig assumed Jerry Marancik’s role on the BRT. We would also like to acknowledge the many people who contributed to the completion of this document. Primarily, the work of previous Atlantic Salmon BRTs helped form the basis of this document. Previous BRT members include M. Colligan, J. Kocik, D. Kimball, J. Marancik, J. McKeon, P. Nickerson, and D. Beach. Many other individuals contributed helpful comments, ideas, and work products including D. Belden, E. Cushing, R. Dill, N. Dube, M. Hachey, C. Holbrook, D. Kusnierz, P.

  • A River Runs Through It Grades 6-8
    A River Runs Through It Grades 6-8 Most communities in New Brunswick are built along or close to a river. Each river is a water system and an ecosystem combined, offering benefits and sometimes challenges to the diversity of living organisms within its reaches. This learning plan will provide you with opportunities to investigate and learn about rivers in New Brunswick. Some of the activities require a tablet or computer and an internet connection, but others can be completed offline with common household items. Math questions are categorized by grade level. Answer as many as you can, and have fun! Materials/Resources: • Pencils, pens, paper • Dictionary • Computer or mobile device with internet access (optional) • For one of the French language activities, you can access a video through idello.org, which requires you to set up a free account using an email address. River Roundup Let’s start by looking at the parts of a river as it moves from its source to its destination: a lake or ocean. Refresh your knowledge of rivers by watching this video from MonkeySee on YouTube. Bill Nye the Science Guy has a full episode on Rivers and Streams, and a summary on his website. Check out the big ideas he shares about rivers. Can you identify the parts of a river? Match the words below the image with the number labels on the image.
