Sanctuary science evaluation of status and information needs

Identifies most important science and information needs for natural resource management in the marine sanctuaries, and evaluates how well the needs are being addressed by current and planned activities. The report uses priority scientific objectives identified in a 2001 science workshop for the following management issues: habitat delineation, zoning, assessment of living marine resources, water quality protection, fishing/harvest effects, wildlife disturbance, event response, restoration/rehabilitation, and industrial uses. 2002 NOS (National Ocean Service) OCM (Office for Coastal Management) ONMS (Office of National Marine Sanctuaries) CoRIS (Coral Reef Information System) Library Public Domain 1936
