"Maritimes Region." “March 2018.” Includes bibliographical references (p. 31-42). “The southern arm of the inner Bay of Fundy -- a macrotidal marine-estuarine system containing the Minas Channel, Minas Passage, Minas Basin and Cobequid Bay, Nova Scotia -- is an Ecologically and Biologically Significant Area (EBSA), one of a number of EBSAs identified by Fisheries and Oceans Canada. EBSA is not a legal designation; however, information on ecological features is used in sustainable management of marine resources and activities. This report contains a review carried out for Fisheries and Oceans Canada, Maritimes Region, in late 2016, of scientific information and studies on selected topics necessary to address data gaps identified in the process of developing the Evangeline-Cape Blomidon-Minas Basin EBSA. This report draws on earlier overviews which described the biophysical features of Minas Basin and the features of the area in relation to the EBSA criteria, as well as more recent publications and scientific research"--Abstract, p. v.
