Preface<br />
THE Science Review describes the federal marine science and fisheries research programs that are carried out<br />
at the <strong>Bedford</strong> <strong>Institute</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Oceanography</strong>, Dartmouth, Nova Scotia; at the Halifax Fisheries Research<br />
Laboratory, Halifax, Nova Scotia; and at the St. Andrews Biological Station, St. Andrews, New Brunswick.<br />
The Science Review supercedes the BIO Review, which reported annually on research activities at the<br />
<strong>Bedford</strong> <strong>Institute</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Oceanography</strong> (BIO) undertaken by the Department <strong>of</strong> Fisheries and Oceans (DFO), the<br />
Department <strong>of</strong> Energy, Mines and Resources (DEMR) and the Department <strong>of</strong> the Environment (DOE). The<br />
new Science Review reflects the 1986 integration <strong>of</strong> the science programs <strong>of</strong> the Department <strong>of</strong> Fisheries and<br />
Oceans in the Scotia-Fundy Region. The Science Review continues to report on the marine geoscience<br />
programs <strong>of</strong> the Atlantic Geoscience Centre <strong>of</strong> DEMR at BIO, as well as on the activities <strong>of</strong> the Seabird<br />
Research Unit <strong>of</strong> DOE.<br />
The last issue <strong>of</strong> BIO Review presented information on charts and publications produced and ships’ voyages<br />
undertaken during 1985; the corresponding parts <strong>of</strong> this issue <strong>of</strong> Science Review contain material for both<br />
1986 and <strong>1987</strong>.<br />
