Northwest Atlantic Background
geographic distribution of many fish and shellfish stocks vary in response to environmental change. Therefore, to help understand the cause of observed fluctuations in fish and shellfish resources and eventually predict future changes, we seek to describe and understand the ocean climate and its var...
