Download or read book The Grand Banks written by Bern Keating and published by Chicago : Rand McNally. This book was released on 1968 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: " Its seas are turbulent and fog-shrouded, a place where even a cod gets seasick. For centuries men of many nations have fished its extravagantly fertile waters. Today the Grand Banks is threatened, beset by progress, as huge, hungry factory ships literally vacuum fish from the restless sea. Nearby, in contrast with this modernization, are the small dories whose solitary fishermen work in the ancient way. ' I went... to see a rude way of life before the romance of it vanished forever,' says Bern Keating. And here, in collaboration with a gifted photographer, the author introduces the Grand Banks- and presents a fascinating glimpse into its500-year-old history, a sweeping view of the lives of its sturdy people, and a magnificent tribute to its men who trouble the dangerous seas. In pictures alive with colorful detail, Dan Guravich sensitively records the rich texture of the Grand Banks- the dories and trawlers, birds and icebergs, the fishermen at work, the outports of Newfoundland- before the end of the age of abundance."- publisher.
Download or read book Large Marine Ecosystems of the North Atlantic written by K. Sherman and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2002-04-16 with total page 466 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book to provide assessments of multidecadal changes in resources and environments of the Large Marine Ecosystems (LMEs) of the North Atlantic. Using the case study method, researchers examine the forces driving the changes and actions underway aimed at turning the corner from declining trends in biomass yields, toward recovery of depleted species populations and improvements in ecosystem integrity. Recently a distinguished group of 24 scientists argued eloquently that a new Sustainability Science was emerging that was focused on "meeting fundamental human needs while preserving the life support systems of planet Earth". The contributions contained in this volume are at the cutting edge of Sustainability Science and the results presented by the contributors are pertinent to one of the core questions: "How are long-term trends in environment and development, including consumption and population, reshaping nature-society interactions in ways relevant to sustainability?" (Science Vol. 292, 27 April 2001). The case studies demonstrate the utility of an ecosystem-based approach to the assessment and management of biomass yields and species sustainability. Movements toward ecosystem-based management have emerged from the case studies on the initiation of recoveries of several depleted groundfish stocks of the US Northeast Shelf LME; the collapse of the Newfoundland-Labrador Shelf cod; the assessment of physical and biological changes on the Scotian Shelf, West Greenland Shelf, Iceland Shelf LME, and the Faroe Plateau, the North Sea, and the Barents Sea LMEs. Uncertainties, with regard to environmental and human-generated forcing, are addressed in assessment of the states of the Iberian Coastal and Biscay-Celtic LMEs, and in broad-scale studies of the influences at the base of the food chain of climatic variability on the productivity and biodiversity of plankton communities of the North Atlantic. The volume concludes with an insightful perspective on the approaches used and the results reported by the eminent marine scientist and former President of ICES, Professor Gotthilf Hempel.
