Maritimes region workshop report : incorporating an ecosystem approach into science advice for fisheries (April 3 to 7 2017) / Alida Bundy, Tana Worcester and the Maritimes Region Ecosystem-Based Fisheries...: Fs97-6/3235E-PDF

"Incorporating an Ecosystem Approach into DFO’s Science Advice, including taking into account climate change, has been identified as a priority for DFO. The Maritimes Region Ecosystem Based Fisheries Management Working Group held a Workshop on “Incorporating an Ecosystem Approach into Science Advice For Fisheries” to summarise the state of EBFM in the Maritimes Region, to provide hands-on learning experience for stock assessment scientists, to discuss the opportunities and challenges related to implementing EBFM in the Maritimes Region, and to develop an implementation plan. Participants also discussed the relationship between new State of the Ocean (SOTO) reporting, Ecosystem Stressors and Climate Change programs, which are current priorities in the department regionally and nationally, and EBFM. This report provides an account of the workshop, including its main conclusions, and paves the way to reinvigorate the EBFM discussion, providing concrete recommendations for progress."--Abstract, p. v.
