Guide for video monitoring of hard bottom benthic communities of the south coast of Newfoundland for aquaculture impact assessments / by Flora Salvo … [et al.]. : Fs97-13/1284E-PDF

"This guide is based on a collection of images of the natural benthic taxa and substrates as well as visual indicators of aquaculture deposition, assessed by drop camera along the south coast of Newfoundland where finfish aquaculture activities are established (i.e. Bay d’Espoir, Hermitage Bay, Fortune Bay, and Belle Bay). This guide can be used as a reference for stakeholders involved in the aquaculture monitoring as part of the Aquaculture Activities Regulations (AAR, 2015). Taxa were identified to the lowest taxonomic level according to image quality, AAR reporting needs, and observers’ knowledge of species. It is important to note that motile species such as fish, lobster, shrimp and planktonic species were not included for the following reason: effects of potential time of day, seasonal migrations, hiding, attraction, or deterrent behaviours"--Abstract, p. viii.
