Patterns and Relationships in Fish Abundance and Fish Habitat in Arctic Waterbodies (Fisheries and Oceans Canada, April 2002)
This data review report evaluates fisheries datasets compiled from fish studies conducted between 1997-2000 in Arctic waterbodies of the Northwest Territories, submitted by proponents BHP Billiton Diamonds and Diavik. The report identifies significant data integrity issues including missing data, formatting problems, and errors in raw datasets that prevent effective incorporation into a relational fisheries database designed to analyze fish habitat and productivity relationships in sub-arctic lakes.
