Table 1 Mean (with 95% confidence intervals) of core (50% isopleth) nearshore home range areas for acoustically tagged Lake Trout during each season, starting in the summer of 2012 through spring of 2014 in Alexie Lake, NWT. The total number of spatial positions recorded in the nearshore area and the proportion of total positions this represents during each season is included

From: Seasonal variation in activity and nearshore habitat use of Lake Trout in a subarctic lake
