Knowledge and Ecosystem-Based Approach in Baffin Bay (KEBABB) Program : 2019 expedition report / Joannie Charette, Monika Pućko, Kevin Hedges, Zou Zou Kuzyk, Pascal Tremblay, Monica Sokolowski, Stephen... : Fs97-4/3190E-PDF

"Development of an ecosystem-based approach to fisheries management is a priority for Fisheries and Oceans Canada and is an intrinsic part of departmental mandated activities for the sustainable management of marine resources. Baffin Bay hosts the only commercial fisheries for halibut and shrimp in the Arctic. Fish stock assessments for these species are regularly carried out, however, there are fundamental knowledge gaps with regard to bio-physical habitat and marine ecosystem components. As a result, key ecosystem knowledge is currently lacking and holds back the development and implementation of an ecosystem-based approach to fisheries management in this region. Additionally, climate change and variability adds to the urgency of establishing baseline ecosystem characterization required for an ecosystem approach to sustainable fisheries. The KEBABB (Knowledge and Ecosystem-Based Approach in Baffin Bay) program was established to fulfill these knowledge gaps, linking marine fishery resources to integrated measurements of the physical, chemical and biological oceanographic components and marine ecosystem of western Baffin Bay"--Abstract, page vi.
