Phase 1 framework for undertaking an ecological assessment of the outer coast rocky intertidal zone / Glen S. Jamieson, Ray Lauzier and Graham Gillespie. : Fs70-1/1999-209E-PDF

A proposed research design and recommendations as to how the studies should be integrated with planned stock assessment research is presented. This research document provides a brief history of both the goose barnacle and sea mussel fisheries, plus a literature review of the biology and ecology of both species. Included as well, is a scientific review of disturbances and recoveries in the rocky intertidal zone. It is important to note that considerable information is available from local studies of the goose barnacle, and in particular on impacts of harvesting. These reviews are followed by an approach for an ecosystem assessment of the rocky intertidal, which includes allowing a modest experimental fishery. Such a study should be preparatory to full renewable resource exploitation in this ecosystem. Criteria on which to develop a research design are proposed.
