This book was released on 2013 with total page 19 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Sylvia Grinnell River is located in Frobisher Bay, Nunavut, Canada, near the city of Iqaluit. The anadromous Arctic Char, Salvelinus alpinus, (hereafter referred to as char) in the Sylvia Grinnell River is an important species for the people of Iqaluit. The objectives of the research discussed here were to: 1) estimate abundance of char in the Sylvia Grinnell River, 2) evaluate stock status by examining biological characteristics and CPUE, 3) recommend a sustainable harvest level, and 4) proportion the relative removal of char into various fishing methods (i.e. snagging, angling, gillnets). However, to better understand the stock structure, additional work was undertaken on char movements and genetic stock discrimination (J.S. Moore, unpubl. data) for fish caught in the Sylvia Grinnell and nearby Bay of Two Rivers.--Document.

This book was released on 2013 with total page 14 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A Regional Advisory Process was held at the Freshwater Institute in Winnipeg March 18, 2013 to assess Arctic Char (Salvelinus alpinus) from the Sylvia Grinnell River, Nunavut. The meeting included participants from Fisheries and Oceans Canada Science, and Resource Management, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, and the Amaruq Hunters and Trappers Association. During the meeting, presentations were made on the data collected between 2009 and 2011 used to estimate abundance based on a mark-recapture study, to describe the current biological characteristics of the stock, to estimate the total harvest and to evaluate harvest levels by fishing method. Insufficient data were available to estimate the stock abundance, current exploitation rate, harvest level, or to evaluate the impact that snagging Arctic Char has on the stock abundance. This Proceedings report summarizes the relevant discussions."--Document.

Download or read book Marine Biodiversity Conservation written by Keith Hiscock and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-08-21 with total page 397 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Effective marine biodiversity conservation is dependent upon a clear scientific rationale for practical interventions. This book is intended to provide knowledge and tools for marine conservation practitioners and to identify issues and mechanisms for upper-level undergraduate and Masters students. It also provides sound guidance for marine biology field course work and professionals. The main focus is on benthic species living on or in the seabed and immediately above, rather than on commercial fisheries or highly mobile vertebrates. Such species, including algae and invertebrates, are fundamental to a stable and sustainable marine ecosystem. The book is a practical guide based on a clear exposition of the principles of marine ecology and species biology to demonstrate how marine conservation issues and mechanisms have been tackled worldwide and especially the criteria, structures and decision trees that practitioners and managers will find useful. Well illustrated with conceptual diagrams and flow charts, the book includes case study examples from both temperate and tropical marine environments.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Information on the parasites of Canadian fishes published between the years 1978 and 1993, inclusive, is assembled as Parasite-Host and Host-Parasite lists. The 925 named species of parasites are reported on 292 species of Canadian fishes. The Parasite-Host list is organized on a taxonomic basis and identifies for each species its habitat (freshwater, marine, or brackish), site of occurence in its host(s), species host(s), known geographic distribution within Canadian waters, and the published source for each host and localty record. The Host-Parasite list is organized according to the taxonomy of the hosts and is accompanied by data on the known Canadian distribution of the parasites. For both the Parasite-Host and Host-Parasite lists, a "Remarks" section containing explanatory comments concerning systematics, nomenclature, and notes on other specific items is included as warranted. In addition to listing the cited references, as supplentary list of references is included to cover other Canadian literature on fish parasites.

Book excerpt: The various chapters of this book have been written by researchers who are still working in the Canadian Inland Seas region. The chapters synthesize what is known about these seas, yet much still is to be learnt. It is hoped that this collection of information will serve as a springboard for future, much needed, studies in this fascinating, diverse region, and will stimulate comparative analyses with other subarctic and arctic basins of the world. The Canadian Inland Seas are the only remnants, albeit cold, of the ancient cratonic marine basins which occupied central North America throughout the Paleozoic and part of the Mesozoic. Precambrian rocks and gently dipping Paleozoic sedimentary rocks underlie the seas. The area is also close to the centers of Pleistocene glaciations. The coastal areas represent an emerged landscape of the post-glacial Tyrrell sea, as the region has been isostatically uplifted to about 350 meters since glacial times. A total of 56 fish species inhabit Hudson Bay and James Bay. Seals, whales and one of the largest and southernmost populations of polar bears inhabit the seas as well. The coastal areas are important habitats for migratory bird populations, some of which migrate from as far away as Southern Argentina.The ostic environment has preserved these regions relatively unchanged by man, with only a major harbour at Churchill, Manitoba, which is active for part of the year, and a second large, rail-terminal settlement in the south at Moosonee, Ontario. A few, small, native Indian and Inuit villages dot the coasts. The seas are being affected indirectly by the damming of rivers for the generation of hydroelectric power, and by drainage diversions towards the man-made reservoirs. A major project is being completed in Quebec east of James Bay, but other rivers in Ontario and Manitoba have been dammed as well. Undoubtedly freshwater is one of the more important resources of the area, however its exploitation needs careful thought because of the possible long-range effects on the environment, particularly the coastal marshes, which sustain much of the eastern American intercontinental migratory avifauna. Other resources occur in the regions, primarily minerals and perhaps petroleum. For the most part however, such resources remain to be discovered.
