Atlantic Salmon Chaleur Bay SFA 15
Fisheries Pêches and Oceans et Océans DFO Science Maritimes Region Stock Status Report D3-01 Atlantic Salmon Chaleur Bay SFA 15 Background Salmon Fishing Area (SFA) 15 includes northern New Brunswick; major rivers are the Restigouche, Nepisiguit and Jacquet. Juvenile salmon generally remain in fresh water for two to three years. Adult stages consist of small salmon (fork length <63 cm) and large salmon (fork length ≥ 63 cm). Most small salmon spend one year at sea before returning to spawn. Most large The Fishery salmon returning to the Nepisiguit River have spent two years at sea. The Aboriginal and recreational fisheries took Restigouche River stock has components of place in all three rivers. Four First Nations both two- and three-sea-winter fish. Most and members of the New Brunswick large salmon are female.

ATLANTIC SALMON INTEGRATED MANAGEMENT PLAN 2008-2012 GULF REGION Adult
ATLANTIC SALMON INTEGRATED MANAGEMENT PLAN 2008-2012 GULF REGION Adult Smolt Spawning Eggs Parr Eyed Eggs Fry Alevin Did you know that… • Salmon eggs are spawned in freshwater during the fall, incubate during the winter, and hatch in the spring. • Eggs hatch as fry and develop into parr over their first 2-4 years of life in freshwater. • Parr develop into smolts which leave their freshwater environment in the spring and migrate to the ocean. • Smolts that grow in the ocean for 1 year before they return to their native rivers to spawn are called grilse but smolts that grow in the ocean for 2 or more years before returning to spawn are called salmon. • After spawning in the fall, salmon and grilse are called kelts or black salmons and remain in rivers under the cover of ice until spring at which time they return to the ocean environment. • Salmon and grilse can spawn multiple times during their life. ATLANTIC SALMON INTEGRATED MANAGEMENT PLAN GULF REGION PLAN OVERVIEW The future well-being of the Atlantic salmon resource depends upon all parties working together through an integrated approach and in a harmonized manner. The Atlantic Salmon Integrated Management Plan for the Gulf Region is a five-year plan designed to engage the parties interested in the sustainable and orderly management of Atlantic salmon. It aim at strengthening their participation and to improve communications towards this endeavour. Engagement of the public and its community representatives should lead to better predictability and transparency in the decision making process. It is also meant to be an umbrella plan that allows for an adaptive and inclusive management approach based on the stakeholders' capacity. -

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. -
A 3-D Historical Data Integration Study in the Heath Steele Mining Camp, Bathurst New Brunswick, Canada
3D Theatre Presentation _________________________________________________________________________________________ Paper 123 New Eyes on Old Data: A 3-D Historical Data Integration Study in the Heath Steele Mining Camp, Bathurst New Brunswick, Canada. Vander Most, A. [1], de Kemp, E. A. [2], Hannington, M. D. [1], Goodfellow, W. D. [2], Peter, J. M. [2] _________________________ 1. University of Ottawa 2. Geological Survey of Canada ABSTRACT At a time when mineral deposit discoveries are becoming more challenging, explorationists need to investigate alternative ways for ore targeting. 3-D GIS provides a critical environment for understanding the characteristics and the environments of ore deposits, reducing the risk in exploration. Many larger companies have accumulated extensive databases through past exploration programs or through mergers and acquisitions of other companies. A considerable amount of archived and historical data may be available from developed mines that are now closed; although these data may have been used in earlier exploration programs, they are rarely integrated into linked data sets that can be effectively applied to follow-up ore targeting exercises. When revisiting historical data a systematic approach is required for migrating information from paper records to fully linked data sets suitable for interpretation in 3- D GIS. Examining inherent relationships between data sets, assessing spatial quality and availability of data at various scales and judging their relevance to exploration models are all critical steps in this data characterization process. As an example of the process of restoring historical mine data to a condition suitable for analysis in 3-D GIS, we have compiled records of the distribution of ore- associated iron formation from the massive sulfide deposits at Heath Steele, in the Bathurst Mining Camp, northern New Brunswick. -
