I gave a presentation at the annual meeting of the Canadian Nautical Research Society, New Westminster BC Canada on August 19 2016 that described some of the techniques and vessels used over the years (1973 to 2014) in sampling the Fraser River estuary. Reaches from Chilliwack to Point Grey and Sandheads in the Strait of Georgia (Canadian Salish Sea are covered. Methods for benthos, salmonid food organisms and juvenile salmonids are mentioned.
