Graphic illustrations of the major ecosystems in the Pacific region, including details on the main ecological components, key ecological interactions, environmental drivers, and relevant human activities. Ecosystems range from the intertidal to the deep sea and include: High and low energy rocky...

The data in the files of this dataset represent the raw and standardized information of the distribution of the number of prey in stomachs of larval fish, the increments widths derived from larval fish, and the mortality rates, that were included in the study by Pepin (2024) into the probability...

This dataset is a compilation of algae and substrate observations that have been collected on DFO dive surveys between 1996 and 2021. Sources of this data include Marine Invertebrate Section/Shellfish Data Unit biological survey databases held for targeted species observations of green sea...

We assembled productivity (i.e. recruits per spawner) estimates for British Columbian Sockeye, Pink, and Chum Salmon. Annual estimates, by brood year, of spawner numbers, catch, and population and age composition were obtained from regional experts and organized in a simple database. Time series...

Recruitment overfishing in the Spot Prawn (Pandalus platyceros) trap fishery in British Columbia on the west coast of Canada is managed using a fixed escapement system. Fixed escapement targets in the fishery are set and implemented as the number of female spawners caught per trap in the...

Acoustic telemetry is a widely used method in assaying behavioural dynamics in fishes. Telemetry tags are often surgically implanted in the coelom of the animal and are assumed to have minimal rates of post-release mortality and tag shedding. However, fish are capable expelling tags and...

The data for this study are from a sub-Arctic coastal ecosystem (1000 km2) in the northwest Atlantic. The aim of the collection was to characterize the prey of the larvae of important fish species that occur in Conception Bay, Newfoundland. Plankton was sampled fortnightly from late May until...

Microsatelite frequencies by stock for several pacific marine species of fish.

Created in 2005, Science Advisory Reports include traditional Stock Status Reports, Ecosystem Status Reports, and Habitat Status Reports. Moreover, management strategies, frameworks and guidelines on the assessment or evaluation on specific issues, impacts of human activities on ecosystem...

The Atmospheric Forcing Index (AFI) utilizes standardized scores of the first component from a principal components analysis on the Aleutian Low Pressure Index (ALPI), Pacific Interdecadal Oscillation Index, and the northwesterly atmospheric circulation anomalies for the North Pacific (December...
