Table 2: Osoyoos Lake 2006-13 Mysis diluviana biomass (µg L-1 dry weight) and production rates (µg L-1 d-1 dry weight), were averaged from samples collected every 2-3 weeks during June-October of each year. The production methods used were bioenergetics [45, 46], size-frequency [56], and increment summation [55].
