Physical Factors Implicated in Reduced Barnacle {Balanus glandula Darwin) populations at the Squamish Estuary, B.C.

The survival, growth and fecundity of a transplanted barnacle population at the Squamish estuary, British Columbia, were studied for one year. The

transplanted barnacles were found to show poor survival, fecundity and growth compared to a control population in West Vancouver. These were related

to the prevailing stress conditions of low, fluctuating salinity and high turbidity at the estuary.
