TAXONOMIC COVERAGE:
Organisms studied

Methods:	Data were collected to compare larval grayling growth in designated control and fertilized river reaches. About every ten days, larvae were collected using dip nets and a seine. The larvae were brought back to Toolik camp, weighed, measured. Fish were returned to the river in the areas from which they were removed. Notes: 1998 is the second consecutive year that Oksrukuyik Creek has not been fertilized.
