Large marine ecosystems of the North Atlantic
2002
Sherman, Kenneth | Skjoldal, Hein Rune
"The volume is an update on ecological conditions within the LMEs based on analyses presented to the first international symposium on North Atlantic LMEs held in Bergen, Norway. Using the case study method, the contributors examine the present state of 10 LMEs from the coasts of North America. Greenland, and Iceland to the waters of northern and southern Europe. They provide new insights on the causes of the drastic declines in fishery biomass yields and environmental health and on the present perspectives on actions underway to improve the health and sustainability of the LMEs." "Tenth in the series on LMEs, this book is essential reading for scientists and students in marine relevant fields, conservationists, resource managers, policy makers and others interested in the fate of ocean ecosystems."--BOOK JACKET.
