Recommendations for a DFO Maritimes coastal monitoring program / by C. DiBacco ... [et al.].: Fs97-6/3185E-PDF

"In support of a DFO Maritimes regional coastal monitoring initiative, we developed a preliminary framework, identified key elements and program milestones, and highlighted general recommendations to inform its implementation. Advice was generated using best available data and expert knowledge synthesized from a literature review, initiation of a DFO Maritimes Coastal Monitoring Inventory, and consultations and a workshop with coastal researchers, managers, and stakeholders. Seven milestones were selected for immediate action to address program development priorities. Overall, there is great interest and opportunity to integrate and develop existing monitoring in the region to more efficiently monitor change in the coastal zone. However, support for coastal monitoring coordination, direction from a steering committee, and coastal data management processes are necessary to provide the infrastructure required to efficiently add new coastal observations and incorporate them into data management, data analysis, and advice”--Abstract, p. iv.
