Proceedings of the regional peer review on monitoring indicators, protocols and strategies for the proposed Laurentian Channel marine protected area (MPA) : June 24-26, 2014, St. John's, Newfoundland...: Fs70-4/2014-032E-PDF
A Canadian Science Advisory Secretariat (CSAS) Regional Science Peer Review Process was held June 24-26, 2014 in St. John’s, Newfoundland and Labrador (NL) to provide a scientific peer review of a proposed Laurentian Channel Marine Protected Area (LC MPA) monitoring framework. This meeting was held in response to a request from Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) Oceans sector which asked DFO Science sector to provide support and advice on the proposed LC MPA. Participation at the meeting included DFO Science, DFO Ecosystems Management (NL and Maritimes (MAR) Regions), and Memorial University of Newfoundland/Marine Institute. Three categories of indicators are proposed for monitoring the LC MPA: 1. direct indicators, which provide information on status and trends of species of interest related to the Conservation Objectives (COs); 2. indirect indicators, which will provide information on biotic and abiotic components of the environment that can help account for changes in the COs; and 3. anthropogenic pressure indicators, which can assess human activities that may affect the COs inside and outside of (i.e., adjacent to) the LC MPA.
