Documentation of geographic area definitions in support of Pacific region registers of marine species / by J.L. Finney ... [et al.].: Fs97-6/3086E-PDF
In support of aquatic biodiversity research, conservation and sustainable management initiatives, Fisheries & Oceans Canada (DFO) Pacific Region is developing a regional Register of Marine Species (RMS). An RMS is comprised of two parts: a definitive list of species and a geographic area within which the listed species are found. The purpose of this paper is to provide a brief summary of some of the major geographic area classification systems used globally and regionally and make recommendations on which systems should be utilized in the Pacific Region RMS. We discuss rational for inclusion of selected geographic area classification systems in this review and define criteria against which the selected systems are measured.
