Abstract

The Bedford Institute of Oceanography (BIO) and its two associated laboratories, St. Andrews Biological Station and the Halifax Fisheries Research Laboratory, are funded by the Government of Canada through the Departments of Fisheries and Oceans, Energy, Mines and Resources, and Environment Canada. The Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) is the proprietor of BIO and the largest participant in the research program. The overall objective of the science program at BIO is to ensure that scientific information of the highest standard is available to the Government of Canada for use in developing policies, regulations, and legislation regarding the oceans and the living and nonliving resources contained in the oceans and in the sedimentary rocks below. There is a role to play in making this information available to the ocean industry and to the general public.
