An Ad Hoc Group of the Ocean Sciences Board of the Assembly
of Mathematical and Physical Sciences, National Research Council,
was formed in 1980 to study the constraints that impede advances
in the understanding of fisheries ecology. In order to continue
the discussions of the Ad Hoc Group and plan strategies or actions
that might be taken to resolve the critical questions of fisheries
ecology, the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution and the National
Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration sponsored a Fisheries
Ecology Meeting at Woods Hole, June 8-11, 1981. The Woods Hole
meeting addressed various topics related to a) fisheries ecology:
the point of view of management, b) regional experience, c) fish
and their environment, d) population dynamics, e) socioeconomics,
f) the national environment for conducting fisheries ecology
research, and g) actions that need to be undertaken.
