Time Series

Here we show concentrations of Copepods, Amphipods, Decapods, Euphausiids, and Total
Biomass as time series at each location, for all years.

In these figures, data for each station are plotted horizontally at the time of sampling, at a
vertical location that coincides with its location in the map at left. Some stations (e.g., from
Cowichan Bay) have been offset vertically to avoid confusing them with other locations.

Oceanographic conditions in the Strait are seasonally affected by freshwater inflow, and the
blue line at the bottom indicates the flow of the Fraser River at Hope, which is the major source
of freshwater to the Strait.
