Such an awesome talk and very much needed

This guy was not fishing on the grand banks dragging i work in a drag er and it destroyed everything in the path of the ship

The grand banks have been rape by dragging destroyed the fishing grounds of the grand banks

Anyone know or have theories on why the snap gear would have a lower catch ratio and not catch big fish? 26:25

IPCC is lying and it's far much worse. They predicted 1 c by 2050 in 2010. It's above 1 c now. 😂

Very informative session. Is it possible if we can get the ppt for the presentation?

Scammer

I honestly didn't know about bowhead whales until just now. This is neat.

interesting talk would you be able to post your slides I'd like to reference some of them. in our city we are going through a coastal hazards process and information like this would be incredibly helpful to help inform the discussion.

Terrible audio...

Glad to come across this presentation; it is eye-opening and inspiring.

I would like to know the title of the paper that you mention in the ecospace part please¡

Thanks for sharing this presentation!

Plzz. Snd me this lecture in pdf

Hi sir, It really a nice presentation. Sir, I want to know the data requirements for Ecosim and Ecopath for ecological modelling in freshwater reservoir and wetlands

Just a sidebar. I've spent my entire adult life sportfishing in Juan de Fuca Strait. This year(2020) there has been plenty of Coho. The in migrating adult Coho feed ravenously while transiting the Strait. Normally juvenile Herring(3 to 4 inches) comprise much of there diet. These juvenile Herring are the out-migrating hatch from the spring Herring spawn in Georgia Strait. When the juvenile Herring are scarce the adult Coho feed on the out-migrating salmon smolts which are between 6 and 8 inches long. It's not uncommon to find 2 to 6 smolts in the stomachs of one adult Coho. Multiply that by the thousands and you have significant smolt mortality. It also emphasizes the importance of having abundant Herring.

Activism posing as science

Do you think aquaculture can significantly contribute to the food security of the country

Thanks for sharing its really helpful it i would be thankfull to you if you provide the email of the speaker??

Before you start killing seals and sea lions, start at the heart of the problem and introduce a 5 year ban on salmon fishing. As far back as 50 years ago, we were warned by scientists/biologists that we were harvesting too many fish from the waters. Yes the seals are eating the smolts but if you stop overfishing there will be more fish to spawn. Culls historically are short term, band-aid solutions that don't work. DFO and the commercial industry are the problem. Since this video, DFO have admitted that they over estimated the Herring population. This error resulted in 25% of the Herring being removed from the water in 2019 which is devastating with serious implications. Never trust scientists that are hired by people financially tied to the commercial fishing industry.

To all those folks that signed a petition to stop the herring fishery in the Strait of Georgia, if you are not afraid of having your beliefs challenged this should give you cause to reconsider

at 13:00 ; The Seal diet data from around the Georgia strait: 2% of their diet was juvenile Chinook and Coho. But with 40,000 Seals in the Georgia strait the numbers equated to the Seals consuming about half of the Coho smolts, and about 33% of Chinook smolts that are entering the ocean yearly. While there is still controversy, the controversy is no longer about whether Seals are the most proximate cause of the Salmon smolt mortality, they (Seals) most definitely are (the cause).

Very Well Done!!

Fabrice, Interesting presentation. Thanks for pointing it out to me. -- Nancy Ruther

Glad I found this talk I needed a pep talk to remind me of how important it is to keep studying this for my thesis and why we need more data on LBSF thanks!

Can I just say something. There are vary few people that actually chum waters dropping bait in the water is not chumming that is fishing. Also there are tons of people that work with scientists and there was a public fishing group called the black tip challenge and they tagged tons of sharks for science. Also I know I need a little more studies time but can I ask where you got the hammerhead topic and saying that land-based fishing kills most of them you need to get tagging and then find which one dies because I let all my sharks go health an I can assure you they survived!! Please don't throw Land based shark fishing under the bus and say that we are most threatening group because we are not!!!!

That was interesting, thank you.
