Hear from several of the individuals involved in OFI about what it will mean for ocean research at Dalhousie and for Canada’s ocean leadership.

At its annual general meeting last month, the American Fisheries Society presented the Dal-hosted Ocean Tracking Network with its prestigious Conservation Achievement Award, which recognizes significant contributions to fishery conservation or science.
