Use of Autosamplers and Autoanalyzers to Facilitate Watershed Monitoring, Management, and Enhancement

斯特金河流域是北萨斯喀彻温河的一个子流域。在过去的20-30年里，鲟鱼河发生了巨大的变化。长期居民的轶事表明，分水岭、水质、水流和深度、鱼类和野生动物数量都减少了。农业、工业、娱乐和城市化活动对这个小流域的累积压力正在对曾经是多产鱼类和野生动物栖息地的地方产生负面影响。该项目将汇集包括行业在内的多个利益攸关方，共同评估鲟鱼河流域内河岸和鱼类栖息地的质量，然后提出和评估最佳管理做法。

The Sturgeon River Watershed is a sub-basin of the North Saskatchewan River. In the past 20-30 years, the Sturgeon River has changed drastically. Anecdotal accounts from long-time residents indicate that the watershed, the water quality, water flow and depths, and fish and wildlife populations have all diminished. The cumulative pressures from agricultural, industrial, recreational, and urbanization activities on this small watershed are having a negative impact on what was once a productive fish and wildlife habitat. This project will bring multiple stakeholders, including industries, together to assess the quality of riparian and fish habitat within the Sturgeon River drainage, and then to propose and assess best management practices.
