Fisheries science in North America is changing in response to a
changing climate, new technologies, an ecosystem approach to
management and new thinking about the processes affecting stock and
recruitment.
Authors of the 34 chapters review the science in their
particular fields and use their experience to develop informed
opinions about the future. Everyone associated with fish, fisheries
and fisheries management will find material that will stimulate
their thinking about the future. Readers will be impressed with the
potential for new discoveries, but disturbed by how much needs to
be done in fisheries science if we are to sustain North American
fisheries in our changing climate. Officials that manage or fund
fisheries science will appreciate the urgency for the new
information needed for the stewardship of fish populations and
their ecosystems. Research organizations may want to keep some
extra copies for a future look back into the thoughts of a wide
range of fisheries professionals. Fisheries science has been full
of surprises with some of the surprises having major economic
impacts. It is important to minimize these impacts as the demand
for seafood increases and the complexities of fisheries management
increase.
