Annapolis Estuary Monitoring & Research
The main objective of CARP's estuary monitoring and research project is to fill knowledge gaps that will support the long-term restoration and stewardship of the Annapolis River estuary ecosystem, including the species-at-risk and other biodiversity it supports.

Calling all striped bass anglers!
We are looking for anglers who fish for striped bass in the Annapolis estuary or river to join our volunteer team. Anglers are asked to complete a log of their effort and catch data, and to collect scale samples of any fish they land. To sign-up, contact carp@annapolisriver.ca.
Past work on the Annapolis Estuary
The Atlantic Canada Estuary Health Assessment project focused on increasing knowledge and enhancing integrated ecosystem planning in select estuarine environments across the four Atlantic Provinces. This project was a collaborative effort between environmental groups from the Bay of Fundy, Nova Scotia South Shore, Gulf of St. Lawrence, & western Newfoundland.
