Different Growth Rates in Young-of-the-Year Mountain Whitefish in Southern Alberta
| Division: | Engineering & Computing Sciences | | Category: | Senior | | Region: | Lethbridge | | City: | Lethbridge, AB | | School: | Winston Churchill High School | | Abstract: | Fork lengths of young-of-the-year mountain whitefish from the same population, but from three different sites, in southern Alberta were compared. No statistical difference was expected. A significant difference was found with fork lengths positively related to average weekly water temperature. This suggests that environmental factors affected the rate of growth. |
