Some aspects of the distribution of Benthis fauna in Cedar Lake, Manitoba

Cedar Lake is the largest lake on the Saskatchewan River system, having an area of 320,000 acres. The lake can be divided into a main basin and a smaller, irregular north arm. The physical and chemical properties of the lake and the benthic fauna were studied during a period of two and half months...
