Capturing the big picture: Pacific hake surveys chart the health of fish populations and the larger environment Pacific
02/02/2009
Time on a research vessel is costly but vital for fisheries scientists. That's why Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) scientists make full use of their ship-board studies, collecting a wealth of data that will help them piece together a clear picture of species in the seas, and the changing dynamics of their ocean environment.
Centre of Expertise for Aquatic Habitat Research: Exploring the Connections Between Habitat and Aquatic Communities Newfoundland and Labrador
