Deep-water corals in Atlantic Canada : a summary of ESRF-funded research (2001-2003) / [by] Pal B. Mortensen ... [et al.] : NE22-4/143E

Cover image

This report is part of a series of ESRF-funded research that examines environmental and social issues related to petroleum exploration and development on frontier lands— those areas where the resources are located in offshore areas of the East and coasts and all lands north of the 60th parallel. Studies examine the biological, environmental, and ecological effects of exploration and means to prevent or mitigate harm to facilitate effective decision-making. All ESRF studies are subject to a scientific/technical peer review.
