Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report provides historical information (landings) on the flatfish fishery in southwest Nova Scotia as well as an evaluation of 3 stocks: winter flounder, American plaice and yellowtail flounder. Stock status evaluations are based on the commercial catch rates, and survey abundance indices and size composition by species. The report discusses management considerations and provides an outlook for these stocks.

This book was released on 2000 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The publication contains the 17 invited papers which were presented and discussed at the Expert Consultation on Sustainable Fishing Technologies and Practices held in St. John's, Newfoundland, Canada (1-6 March 1998). The papers cover four broad categories. The first section deals with the methodologies for development and assessment of the effectiveness of fishing gears. The second section deals with the review of impact assessments of fishing activities on the marine habitat. Representative examples of sustainable fishing technologies and practices are dealt with in the third part and finally the fourth and final section deals with the introduction and implementation of sustainable technologies and practices.

Download or read book A Numeric Scoring Matrix for Use in the Rapid Assessment of Extinction Vulnerability of Marine Fish Species in the NAFO Regions 4VWX 5Zc written by Terry L. Johnston and published by St. Andrews, N.B.. : Fisheries and Oceans Canada. This book was released on 2004 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Accord for the Protection of Species at Risk ( 1996) and the Species at Risk Act (2003) arc initiatives of the Federal government that were established to provide protection and recovery for species at risk in Canada. Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) is the primary source of information and expertise concerning the assessment of extinction vulnerability of aquatic species. The Mari times Region of DFO is responsible for compiling biological information concerning status and potential extinction risk of marine fish species that support fisheries along the Scotian Shelf, northern Georges Bank, and in the Bay of Fundy. Given the breadth and importance of this task, it is necessary that a method for rapid analysis be developed that allows for the assessment of potential extinction vulnerability of fish species, and uses assessment criteria that are explicitly defined and relevant to marine species in Canada. The approach undertaken by the Maritimes Region was to develop a scoring matrix that (1) quantifies the dynamics of a species' abundance and distribution and allows for rapid determination of whether or not that species may be at risk of extinction, and (2) allows for easy comparison across taxa thrnugh standardization of scoring. The intention behind the matrix was to create a more intuitive ranking scheme than has been used in the past. The potential extinction vulnerability of each species is graded out of 100. A high score represents a relatively high risk of extinction or extirpation from Canadian waters. Species assigned high scores by this rapid process can then be subjected to further, indepth evaluation. The criteria and conditions for the matrix were derived from criteria used by COSEWIC, and DFO's General Status Pilot Project. However, a new set of conditions were developed for some criteria to address several of the deficiencies that existed in the General Status approach, and to accentuate factors that may of greater significance to extinction vulnerability than to the assessment of current abundance. This exercise was intended to test the validity and utility of a matrix approach for rapid assessment of extinction vulnerability and ease of comparison among species. The matrix is not intended to replace the formal assessment process, but to identify species that may need higher priority for a formal COSEWIC assessment. A prioritized candidate species list was created based on the results of the matrix analysis

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Atlantic salmon eyed eggs and yolk-sac fry were exposed to low levels of aromatic hydrocarbons (AHs) obtained from diesel fuel, and from Atlantic crude oil, provided by the National Marine Fisheries Service. The latter duplicated oil spilled by the Exxon Valdez in 1989, to which pink salmon were extremely sensitive. Model experiments demonstrated a non-linear relationship between the concentration of diesel fuel in contaminated sand and AH concentration in water, and a complex kinetics of AH partitioning between diesel fuel and water, and the presence of aromatic amines and phenols in diesel fuel.--Publisher's description.

Book excerpt: "Landings from Quebec, Newfoundland and the Maritimes were analyzed for 1979 for plaice, yellowtail, winter and witch flounders. Commercial catch per unit of effort indices (catch in kilograms per hour) using the Chikuni index for otter trawlers tonnage class 4 (150-500) were also calculated. These, as well as research CPUE, indicate that although there is evidence of stock fluctuations, the total biomass is relatively stable and will continue to support the present fishing pressure"--Abstract.
