Capelin (Mallotus Villosus) Habitat Monitoring and Restoration Project on the North Shore of St-Lawrence Gulf Since 2018

The database contains ecological data on capelin spawning, obtained from the sites studied in 2018, 2019, 2020 and 2021 along the North Coast of the Saint Lawrence Gulf.

The data include biological and physical parameters, such as morphometric measurements of adult individuals, egg abundance and egg concentration, presence of larvae, granulometry of monitored beaches, spawning intensity, general site description, and environmental conditions.

The accessible PDF documents include the analysis reports for the 2018 to 2021 monitoring years, the technical advice for the restoration of various capelin habitat sites that the ZIP Committee has planned to restore as part of this project, as well as the restoration report of the first works on the Val-Marguerite site.
