5203 |aThis report describes the major ecological components of the Scotian Shelf and neighbouring waters (Scotian Slope, rise and abyssal plain within Canada’s 200 nautical mile EEZ). The report summarizes what is known about the physical environment and the marine life of this large geographic region, based on existing studies. Individual chapters focus on physiographic features and surficial geology, physical oceanography, plankton, invertebrates, fish, marine mammals, marine-associated birds, sea turtles and endangered species. A concluding chapter highlights the major features of the shelf and identifies important knowledge gaps.
