Clam Mariculture in North America
Author: John J. Manzi
Publisher: Elsevier Science & Technology
ISBN:
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 480
Book Description
Hardbound. Clams have been harvested along the coasts of North America for as long as records have been kept. They support commercial, sport and subsistence fisheries although unfortunately, with few exceptions, the harvest of these invertebrates is declining. This decline is probably caused by a number of factors including pollution and overfishing. In an effort to ameliorate this situation, interest in the aquaculture of these species has grown.Intensive semi-controlled clam culture has been attempted in North America for almost three decades. However, it was not until the last decade that a number of entrepreneurs actually began clam farming and developing successful and profitable operations. This success has been possible because of numerous scientific and practical contributions made by a great number of scientists, growers, and clammers over the years, and by a healthy market demand caused by a downward trend in the wild harvest.Many of the

State of the Environment in the Atlantic Region
Author: Peter B. Eaton
Publisher: Dartmouth, N.S. : Environment Canada, Atlantic Region
ISBN:
Category : Atlantic Provinces
Languages : en
Pages : 480
Book Description
Overview of the environment of the Atlantic Provinces at a particular time. The report identifies problem areas, describes important conditions and trends, and outlines the direction in which the region is headed environmentally. The central theme of the report is the relationship between human activities and environmental quality, human health, and the economy. The concept of sustainability is explored, both in terms of ecosystem sustainability, and the long-term sustainability of the current use of the environment and its resources. The report describes the environmental resource base, including ecozones, demographics, air, water, land, and wildlife; the stresses, including acid rain, dioxins and furans, wildlife and fish habitat, and environmental impact assessment; and a diagnosis for sustained use of air, water, land, special places and species, and energy. A glossary is included.
