Statistical ParametersThe table below shows selected statistical of the overlap of species with oil activities. For each grid block and season, the range of number of species present in the block are shown, as well as mean and variation. From this table, summer was the most biologically active part of the year followed by the autumn Freeze-up period. Winter had the lowest number of species, while the values in spring Break-up period reflect the arrival of many migratory species for summer breeding and feeding.
