Ecologically and biologically significant areas for demersal fishes in the southern Gulf of St. Lawrence
By Swain, D.P. and H.P. Benoît
Abstract
The goal of this report is to identify ecologically and biologically significant areas (EBSAs) for demersal fishes in the southern Gulf of St. Lawrence based on the guidelines in CSAS Ecosystem Status Report 2004/006. This was done using data from research surveys and fishery statistics. Here we focus our presentation on areas that possess higher than average significance. Seven potential EBSAs for demersal fish in the southern Gulf of St. Lawrence are described and ranked as a function of perceived priority.
