It’s Rivers To Oceans Week
This week the Canadian Wildlife Federation dares you to care about protecting the biodiversity of our watersheds in a “Rivers To Oceans” campaign that highlights the risks facing all of our aquatic ecosystems (and what you can do about them).
The Dal Libraries strongly support research into all aspects of marine and aquatic ecology by putting a wide variety of information resources at your fingertips. Explore our subject guides on Marine Biology and Fisheries Oceanography. Read the Encyclopedia of Ocean Sciences online. Explore the Aquatic Sciences and Fisheries Abstracts database. And don’t miss the Elisabeth Mann Borgese archival collection which includes invaluable material from the International Oceans Institute.
Dare to know as well as to care!
