Fisheries and Oceans Research Centres
This study documents some of the many economic, industrial and technological benefits Canadians have received as a result of the scientific activities of the Department of Fisheries and Oceans. The principal findings are expressed in quantitative terms and supplemented by qualitative analyses.
Science
This report details work carried out in 2008-2009 centred around the five key functions of the Science Sector of Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO): research, monitoring, data and information management, scientific advice, and products and services. It includes special articles about the 100th anniversaries of the permanent St. Andrews Biological Station (SABS) on Canada's east coast and the Pacific Biological Station (PBS) on the west coast, and climate change. Award winners are also recognized.--Includes text from document.
Browsing Science Research at the Federal Level in Canada
Wilks provides a historical background, list of publications, and description of activities for most of the major science initiatives undertaken at the federal level. He surveys a wide range of government documents and monographic and serial science collections used by both faculty and students.
Canadian Oceans Policy
This book deals with Canada's oceans management policies since the conclusion of the 1982 Convention of the Law of the Sea. That Convention set out a jurisdictional framework for the management of the world's oceans, but it did not provide states with precise guidance on all the issues that can arise. As a state with one of the world's longest coastlines, Canada was one of the principal beneficiaries under the 1982 Convention regime. A study of Canadian policy is particularly significant, as Canadian oceans management places in relief many of the difficult questions yet to be resolved.
Fisheries Management
Examines the underlying root causes of our failure to successfully manage the fishery resources of the world's oceans. This book offers alternative solutions that can allow human society to maximize the long term benefits form ocean resources. It is of interest to academics in economics, business, environmental sciences and sociology.
Ecosystem-Based Management for the Oceans
Conventional management approaches cannot meet the challenges faced by ocean and coastal ecosystems today. Consequently, national and international bodies have called for a shift toward more comprehensive ecosystem-based marine management. Synthesizing a vast amount of current knowledge, Ecosystem-Based Management for the Oceans is a comprehensive guide to utilizing this promising new approach. At its core, ecosystem-based management (EBM) is about acknowledging connections. Instead of focusing on the impacts of single activities on the delivery of individual ecosystem services, EBM focuses on the array of services that we receive from marine systems, the interactive and cumulative effects o...
Management of Marine Fisheries in Canada
This report describes and evaluates the impact of the major changes in the management of Canada's marine fisheries in recent decades. The report covers the historical and jurisdictional context; biological and economic aspects; objectives of fisheries management; techniques of resources management in general and those used for specific species; managing the common property through allocation of access, limited entry licensing, and individual quotas; the international dimension; the social dimension; habitat management; fisheries enforcement; and fisheries management in the United States, Australia, New Zealand, Norway, Iceland, and the European Community.
