Title: SSBC is hosting a presentation on July 18 by Dr. Brendon Connors
Post by: ralfish on June 19, 2013, 03:20:28 PM: SSBC is hosting a presentation on July 18 by Dr. Brendon Connors.

“Dr. Brendan Connors is a behavioral and quantitative ecologist who recently
completed his Ph.D. at Simon Fraser University. Dr. Connor's dissertation
focused on the interactions of wild and farmed salmon and the impacts of sea
lice on wild salmon. He has published extensively on his pioneering
research, and has parlayed his skills into analyses of how multiple
factors--including competition, climate change, and salmon farms--have
impacted Fraser River sockeye. His work formed a seminal report commissioned
by the Cohen Inquiry into the Decline of Fraser River sockeye, and is
currently working with ESSA consultants to analyze fish impacts from river
diversion hydro projects.”

Presentation: Are there too many Salmon in the Sea?

Where: Royal Canadian Legion on the corner of Nelson and Ridgeway in Coquitlam.
When: 7:00 pm on July 18th.

Post by: Sea-Run Fly & Tackle on July 05, 2013, 09:31:10 AM: Just a reminder of this event. We have had a bit of an overview from one of the SSBC directors who has seen the talk. What DR. Connors will be talking about is a world wide view of Salmon he looks at Salmon coming out of Russia and Japan and what impacts some of their fish production could be having on our stocks. As mentioned sounds like it will be a very interesting evening!

Post by: aquapaloosa on July 05, 2013, 05:01:00 PM: Myself being from the island and up to my eyeballs in the pace of summer will not be able to make this presentation. I am very interested in seeing it. Will there be any opportunities to see a recording of it?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Post by: Dave on August 01, 2013, 09:00:43 PM: Too bad this presentation isn't available for viewing on line for the many people that want this information.. Did any FWR readers attend? If so, your thoughts would be appreciated.
Ralfish, the SSBC was instrumental in hosting this seminar and kudos to all that were involved; things like this are not easy to pull off. Hopefully this discussion will make future SSBC presentations more available to the general public.

Gadsden, why weren't you there recording this :D
