Abstract:
Production of Mytilus edulis was estimated from measurements of recruitment, growth, and abundances. The study is based on (1) yearly samplings carried out between 1975 and 1985 on 161 navigation buoys moored each year in the Estuary and Gulf of St. Lawrence and (2) monthly production estimates in a reference region in 1987. The relationships between production and maximum size, biomass, mean weight per individual, and abundance were calculated for this reference region. Maximum size and biomass were the parameters best reflecting production. Abundance and production estimates showed that the

Abstract:
To quantify the influence of common eiders (Somateria mollissima) on their food supply in the Gulf of St. Lawrence, eastern Canada, we measured prey availability and patch utilization during two consecutive winters. In this region, eiders fed predominantly near submerged reefs where large populations of blue mussels (Mytilus edulis) and green sea urchins (Strongylocentrotus droebachienensis) were present. Density and biomass of mussels and urchins were estimated for two reefs at the beginning of the winter of 1985 – 1986 using SCUBA and quadrat sampling. Prey selection was assessed by comparin

Abstract:
Bivalve culture in Canada increased by 25% from 2000 to 2016. In Prince Edward Island (PEI), bivalves are cultivated in bays and estuaries and there is limited space for further aquaculture expansion. Thus, there is merit in developing a numerical model determining the abundance of bivalve populations in relation to their food availability in order to assess the carrying capacity of shellfish growing areas. This modelling will take into account the different bivalve species present in the bay, as the cultivated Mytilus edulis and Crassostrea virginica and wild, M. edulis, C. virginica, Mya are

Abstract:
Extensive field observations were made in the Mingan Islands, northern Gulf of St Lawrence, to evaluate spatial and temporal variations in the use of habitat and prey resources by two major subtidal predators, the seastars Leptasterias polaris and Asterias vulgaris. Although both seastars have similar size structures and generally overlapped in their spatial and temporal distribution, the degree of overlap varied in different sites and appeared to be related to prey abundance, substratum type and slope. Three general patterns were observed: (1) both species aggregating in shallow water and dec

Abstract:
We studied habitat selection in relation to prey density and water depth in the common eider, Somateria mollissima L., wintering in the Gulf of St. Lawrence, eastern Canada. In this region, eiders are confronted with low temperatures, ice cover, and reduced day length. We predicted that they should select feeding habitats characterized by high prey density and shallow water to minimize the time and energy spent while diving. About 1000 flocks were localized by triangulation on our study site (20.5 km2). We inferred the diving depth and the habitat being used from the position of eiders on bath

Abstract:
Mussel colonization is assumed to result from factors affecting recruitment and post-recruitment survival. Despite evidence of passive migration and habitat engineering by adult mussels, the contribution to population dynamics of these processes remains unknown. This research attempts to elucidate the relative importance and scale of (1) adult movement vs. recruitment and (2) of local habitat engineering vs. habitat heterogeneity, for colonization by the blue mussel, Mytilus spp., in the St. Lawrence Estuary, Quebec. Transplants of marked mussels were used to test these ideas. Our results supp

Abstract:
Recently, the assumption that marine populations are demographically open due to long-distance larval dispersal has increasingly been challenged. Here we present a large-scale, multi-year survey of blue mussel ( Mytilus spp.) abundance and recruitment along the Southern shore of the St. Lawrence Estuary, Quebec. Using spatial statistical tools we detected significant positive cross-covariance between upstream adults and downstream recruitment at a 14-35 km scale. Adult abundances in subsequent surveys proved to be best explained by past patterns of recruitment, rather than growth indices, or t
