List of the Northern River Basins Study project reports (nos. 1-35) approved for public release and available from the Study.
The Northern Rivers Basins Study was established on September 27, 1991 by the governments of Canada, Alberta and the Northwest Territories to examine how development affects the Peace, Athabasca and Slave river basins. This report gives background information on the study, an overview of activities for the year, details of the Science Program, public participation, and financial information. Appendices give the vision statement, a schedule and a listing of project reports approved for public release.

Lists Northern River Basins Study technical reports by issue number, subject, and geographic area studied. Subject areas used to classify the reports are: hydrology/hydraulics, nutrients/dissolved oxygen, contaminants, food chain, drinking water, other uses, traditional knowledge, and synthesis and modelling. Ten geographic divisions are used: three each for the Athabasca and Peace Rivers, and one each of the Wapiti/Smoky rivers, Peace-Athabasca Delta, Lake Athabasca, and Rivière des Rochers/Slave River.
The need to address instream flow needs (IFN) in the Northern River Basins Study arises primarily from issues related to flow regulation on the Peace River. Flow regulation may have effects on fish habitats and has clearly affected riparian habitats in the study area. This report presents proceedings of a workshop held to review methods and approaches for conducting IFN analyses, to consider their applicability to the northern river basins, and to develop recommendations for undertaking IFN investigations as part of the Study. The workshop included two sessions, one on IFN related to fisheries and aquatic habitats and one on IFN related to riparian and delta habitats. Topics of presentations and papers include river hydrology, water quality considerations, vegetation studies, instream flow assessment, winter habitat, implications of river impoundment, modelling of wildlife habitat, channel morphology, sediment transport, and wetland vegetation management.
Annual report of the study, established in September 1991 to examine the relationships between development and the Peace, Athabasca, and Slave River basins. This report gives background information on the study and a 1992/93 overview, details of the science program and public participation, and financial information. Appendices give the vision statement and the status of project reports.
