Alder Brook
St. John, New Brunswick, Canada
Downstream of Arlington Crescent road crossing. The sample site is located in the cedar trees on the right side of the brook downstream of the culvert outflow and upstream of the drainage channel. The best way to access the site is walk down the rocks next to the culvert and through the trees not along the roadway as the bank is very steep.
