| Abstract/Description or Keywords | Coastal watersheds are large producers of forest products and salmonid fishes in British Columbia. Coastal valleys contain all the “good” (3.3%) and the “medium” (33%) industrial forest land of the Vancouver and Prince Rupert forest regions (B.C. Ministry of Forests 1980). Five species of Pacific salmon and two species of trout use the rivers and smaller streams of these forest regions. Two studies of forest harvesting impacts on salmonids were initiated to address concerns relevant to both regions: the Fish/Forestry Interaction Program on the Queen Charlotte Islands in 1978 and the Carnation Creek project on Vancouver Island in 1970. |
