Mixed-stock analysis of Atlantic cod near the Gulf of St. Lawrence based on microsatellite DNA
(2000-08)
The collapse of various stock complexes of cod (Gadus morhua) in the northwest Atlantic has prompted a clarification of relationships among stock components. Here we examine the genetic composition of >2300 cod collected ...
Lipid and gross energy content of North Atlantic right whale food, Calanus finmarchicus, in the Bay of Fundy
(2007)
We address spatial and temporal distribution of abundance, lipid and caloric content and water column energy density of the copepod Calanus finmarchicus, a major food source for the north Atlantic right whale (NARW) Eubalaena ...
Probability and mitigation of vessel encounters with North Atlantic right whales
(Inter-Research, Nordbuente 23 Oldendorf/Luhe 21385 Germany, 2009-03)
Successful mitigation of vessel-whale encounters requires quantitative estimates of vessel strikes, how strike rates change over time, where strikes are most likely to occur, and options for minimizing strikes. In addressing ...
