Cheers, Andy Horn Halifax Nova Scotian Institute of Science 150th Anniversary Free Public Lectures Food, Furs & Feathers: History of Human-induced Changes in Coastal Ecosystems Speaker: Dr. Heike Lotze Canada Research Chair in Marine Renewable Resources Department of Biology, Dalhousie University Monday, November 7, 2011 7:30pm Location: Nova Scotia Museum of Natural History auditorium 1747 Summer St., Halifax. Throughout history, people have used marine resources for food, fuel, furs, feathers and other purposes, but when did they actually start having a marked impact on the abundance of marine animal populations and the structure of coastal ecosystems? Dr. Lotze will present documented historical changes in the outer Bay of Fundy and then compare those to changes in other regions around the world to derive a general history of human-induced changes in marine ecosystems. http://www.chebucto.ns.ca/Science/NSIS/poster_Nov7_Lotze.pdf All are welcome!
