Large-Scale Operations Management Test of Use of the White Amur for Control of Problem Aquatic Plants. Report 1. Baseline Studies. Volume II. The Fish, Mammals, and Waterfowl of Lake Conway, Florida.

Abstract : This report presents the results of studies intended to provide baseline information in preparation for measuring the effect of the white amur on the aquatic vegetation of Lake Conway, Florida. It includes ecological conditions in Lake Conway from May 1976 to August 1977 for fish populations, waterfowl and aquatic mammal populations, fish food habits, waterfowl food habits, and conditions of the sport fishery. Temporal fluctuations in the parameters previously described were emphasized to facilitate future comparisons which will be made between baseline and poststocking data. (Author)
