Abstract

BIOSIS COPYRIGHT: BIOL ABS. Locations and catchment descriptions are given for nine water sampling sites on acidified (acid rain) Atlantic salmon rivers in Nova Scotia, and monthly water chemistry data and water temperatures from these sites for the period 1981-1994. This is part of a program to monitor the recovery from acidification that is expected to follow the international agreement for the control of sulphate emissions. Emissions are expected to decline to target levels over the period 1995-2000.
