ACER: Benthic fish recorded as part of the 1989 Littoral Investigation of Sediment Properties project in the Minas Basin

In 1989, a multidisciplinary study coordinated by the Acadia Centre for Estuarine Research (ACER) was carried out on the Starrs Point tidal flat, a macrotidal flat in the Minas Basin. The objectives of this study, the Littoral Investigation of Sediment Properties (LISP), was to examine parameters that might influence the stability of the sediment surface and to monitor atmospheric and oceanographic conditions continuously during a spring-neap tidal cycle. The final project report (Daborn 1991) contains information on bathymetry, sedimentology, (grain size, organic content, suspended particulate matter), oceanography (tides, circulation patterns, temperature and salinity), geomechanics, erodibility, air-sea-land interactions, primary production, and animal-sediment interactions.
This resource contains information on fish presented in the final project report in Section 3.11.7: 'Fish Utilization of the Tidal Flat'.
NOTE: This resource is a small subset of the data and information presented in the final project report.

1989年，由阿卡迪亚河口研究中心（Acadia Centre for Estuarine Research, ACER）协调开展了一项针对斯塔尔斯点潮滩（Starrs Point tidal flat）的多学科研究，该潮滩位于米纳斯盆地（Minas Basin），属于大潮差潮滩（macrotidal flat）。本次研究命名为沉积物属性沿岸调查（Littoral Investigation of Sediment Properties, LISP），旨在探究可能影响沉积物表面稳定性的各项参数，并在一个朔望潮汐周期（spring-neap tidal cycle）内持续监测大气与海洋学条件。最终项目报告（Daborn 1991）涵盖了水深测绘、沉积学（粒度、有机质含量、悬浮颗粒物）、海洋学（潮汐、环流模式、温度与盐度）、地质力学、侵蚀特性、海-气-陆相互作用、初级生产力以及动物-沉积物相互作用等相关内容。本数据集包含最终项目报告第3.11.7节“潮滩的鱼类利用”中提及的鱼类相关信息。注意：本资源为最终项目报告中所呈现的数据与信息的一个小子集。
