Saguenay-St. Lawrence Marine Park - scientific research program : research and monitoring needs and priorities / developed by the Saguenay-St. Lawrence Marine Park Ecosystem Management and Research Advisory...: R64-474/2017E-PDF
"Scientific research is of paramount importance in Marine Protected Areas considering the limited availability of knowledge pertaining to marine ecosystems when compared to the terrestrial environment. Therefore, encouraging scientific research is a clearly defined objective of the legal mandate of the Marine Park, one of the first Marine Protected Areas in Canada. The needs and priorities with regards to scientific research must respond to emergent ecological, economic or social issues and be able to seize new opportunities that may arise. The orientations defined in this document will guide Marine Park management in its selection of projects to be retained and put forward. This exercise is in response to commitments identified in the Saguenay-St. Lawrence Marine Park’s Management Plan (2010), such as: to maintain and develop monitoring programs for ecosystems and human activities and; set up a research program adapted to the needs of the Marine Park and implement it in partnership with relevant organisations”--Foreward, p. 4.
