Traditionnellement, l'une des principales méthodes de contrôle de la mortalité par pêche est la réglementation du maillage. Ses aspects théoriques ont été éclaircis par Beverton et Holt(1957) et peuvent être résumés de façon simple : l'utilisation d’un filet à maille plus grande permet aux jeunes poissons de s’échapper et donc de grandir et contribuer à la biomasse du stock les années suivantes. 3, record 4, French, - r%C3%A9glementation%20du%20maillage

Fish are marked or tagged so that individuals or groups of fish can be readily identified or differentiated from other individuals or groups of fish. Fish identification can provide information on fish movement, stock identification, population estimates, growth and also aid in laboratory based research studies. Where groups of fish need to be cohabited, the use of different marks such as fin clips or freeze branding can allow easy distinction between the groups. 3, record 6, English, - mark

L'Initiative des écosystèmes des rivières du Nord(IERN) a été mise sur pied par les gouvernements du Canada, de l'Alberta et des Territoires du Nord-Ouest pour donner suite aux recommandations de l'Étude sur les bassins des rivières du Nord(EBRN). Dans le cadre de l'Initiative, des équipes scientifiques se sont attaquées à des priorités telles que la prévention de la pollution, les troubles endocriniens chez les poissons, l'eau potable et la surveillance accrue des effets environnementaux. On a également poursuivi les études sur la fréquence des anomalies chez les poissons ainsi que sur les effets de l'utilisation des terres, de la régularisation du débit et des changements climatiques sur les écosystèmes aquatiques. Cette initiative quinquennale, qui doit arriver à terme en 2003, est administrée par un comité directeur composé de représentants des gouvernements du Canada, de l'Alberta et des Territoires du Nord-Ouest. 1, record 14, French, - Initiative%20des%20%C3%A9cosyst%C3%A8mes%20des%20rivi%C3%A8res%20du%20Nord
