Proceedings on the National Peer Review of Science guidance for Fisheries Protection Policy: Advice on Offsetting Techniques Managing the Productivity of Freshwater Fisheries; June 4-6, 2013
Chairperson: Jake Rice and Roger Wysocki
Editor: Erika Thorleifson and Lauren Ellis
Summary
These Proceedings provide a brief overview of the national science advisory meeting held on June 4-6, 2013 in Ottawa, Ontario. The conclusions and advice resulting from this meeting will be provided in the form of a Science Advisory Report that will be made publicly available on the Canadian Science Advisory Secretariat website. Meeting participants included experts from various sectors and regions of Fisheries and Oceans Canada. The purpose of this meeting was to review methods that could be used to offset fisheries productivity losses due to human development within aquatic ecosystems, to provide operational guidance to the Fisheries Protection Program. Two working papers were distributed prior to the meeting on the topics of:
- Science-based guidance for choosing surrogate measures of fisheries productivity.
- A Review of Scientific Evidence Supporting Generic Productivity-State Response Curve.
