Towards regional benchmarks of fish productivity in nearshore marine ecosystems : model framework, habitat comparisons, and examination of regional data / M.C. Wong and M. Dowd.Fs70-5/2017-078E-PDF

“Regional benchmarks of fisheries productivity could guide decision making by the Fisheries Protection Program (FPP) for authorization, compensation, and offsetting of serious harm. In particular, benchmarks are needed for nearshore marine habitats, which are important for fisheries production. Here we present a model framework to estimate fish production for the data and information poor situations generally found in nearshore ecosystems. We also review available fish data for nearshore habitats in Maritimes Canada and comment on the potential for using these data to develop regional benchmarks"--Abstract, p. viii.
