State of the physical, biological and selected fishery resources of Pacific Canadian marine ecosystems in 2019 / Jennifer L. Boldt, Ania Javorski and Peter C. Chandler (editors).: Fs97-6/3377E-PDF

"Fisheries and Oceans Canada is responsible for the management and protection of marine resources on the Pacific coast of Canada. Oceanographically this area is a transition zone between coastal upwelling (California Current) and downwelling (Alaskan Coastal Current) regions. There is strong seasonality and considerable freshwater influence, and an added variability from coupling with events and conditions in the tropical and North Pacific Ocean. The region supports ecologically and economically important resident and migratory populations of invertebrates, groundfish, pelagic fishes, marine mammals and seabirds. Since 1999 an annual State of the Pacific Ocean meeting has been held by DFO scientists in the Pacific Region to present the results of the most recent year's monitoring in the context of previous observations and expected future conditions. The workshop to review ecosystem conditions in 2019 was held March 10-11, 2020 at the Vancouver Island Conference Centre, Nanaimo, BC. This technical report includes submissions based on presentations and postersgiven at the meeting"--Abstract, page vii.
