Application of a framework to assess vulnerability of biological components to ship-source oil spills in the marine environment in the Pacific Region .: Fs70-6/2017-013E-PDF

"A National Framework to Assess the Vulnerability of Biological Components to Ship-source Oil Spills in the Marine Environment (the framework) was developed by Fisheries and Oceans (DFO), and reviewed in March 2016 through a Canadian Science Advice Secretariat (CSAS) National Peer Review. The framework contributes towards the development of a timely and informed response to ship-source oil spills by identifying biological sub-groups most vulnerable to spilled oil, and focusing data collection for spill response planning. The framework was determined to be appropriate for use in all Canadian regions with an allowance for regional flexibility - biological sub-groups were anticipated to require tailoring to reflect regional bioata."--Context, p.
