The Centre for Coastal Science and Management at Simon Fraser University is pleased to invite you to a talk, Saving Nemo: The science of marine extinctions presented by Nicholas Dulvy, Canada Research Chair in Marine Biodiversity and Conservation, Biological Sciences, SFU on Thursday, April 12th at 7:00 pm, SFU Harbour Centre, room 1800.
Fisheries catches are stagnating and the seas are warming, raising questions as to whether we face the end of the oceans as we know them. We have drawn heavily from our oceans to feed millions but have we done irreversible harm to the biodiversity of our seas? Nicholas Dulvy shares the travelogue of his wanders from library archives to remote islands and coasts to share a story of the state of the oceans and the possible future of marine biodiversity.
