CONT

Phase 2 and 3 of the master plan are comprised of the development of two fingers, one for the transborder sector(phase 2), and the second for the international sector(phase 3). This initial stage will develop a new transborder finger at the southwest quadrant of the current passenger terminal zone.

English

Subject field(s)
  • Collaboration with the FAO
  • Statistics
  • Environmental Management
  • Commercial Fishing
CONT

Past assessments of western Atlantic bluefin tuna... have reduced the number of parameters by assuming pre-specified values for the ratios of the fishing mortality rates on adjacent age groups. More recent bluefin tuna assessments have estimated terminal fishing mortality rates(F) on each age with a constraint that restricts change from one year to the next.... The use of pre-specified ratios for F created strong retrospective biases and may have led to overly optimistic projections. Constraining annual changes in the terminal-year F appeared to mute retrospective patterns and resulted in abundance projections less prone to spurious initial leaps.

OBS

The annual mortality rate acting on a year class in the last year for which catch-at-age data is available. It is the value used to indicate a VPA [virtual population analysis] of cohort analysis.

OBS

F: fishing mortality rate.

Each goal in the initial hierarchy has a height. The lowest terminal nodes are at height 0. Their parents are at height 1, and so on up the tree. The height of the root node is the height of the tree, which we call H.

Subject field(s)
  • Grain Growing
  • Milling and Cereal Industries

CONT

Producers receive an initial payment when they deliver grain to a primary elevator. The level of this initial payment is set by the Canadian Government and is a government-guaranteed price to the producer. The initial payment for each pool account is usually set at what is regarded as a "safe" level and varies from year-to-year according to market conditions.... The net value of grain in each pool account is determined after all grain has been sold and all costs involved in marketing have been deducted. These costs include interest, insurance, storage, terminal elevators handling charges, and the Board's own operating costs. They do not include rail freight costs from primary elevators to terminals or primary elevator handling charges. These costs are deducted from producers’ initial payment when grain is delivered.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Culture des céréales
  • Minoterie et céréales

CONT

Un acompte est versé aux producteurs lorsqu'ils livrent leurs céréales aux silos de collecte. Le montant de cet acompte, fixé par le gouvernement canadien, correspond au prix que le gouvernement garantit aux producteurs. Le montant de l'acompte versé pour chaque compte de mise en commun est habituellement fixé à un niveau jugé "sûr" et varie d'une année à l'autre suivant la situation du marché. [...] Le coût du transport ferroviaire des silos de collecte aux silos portuaires de même que les frais de manutention aux silos de collecte ne sont pas compris dans les frais de commercialisation. On les déduit plutôt de l'acompte versé aux producteur lorsque celui-ci livre ses céréales.
