The database also holds close to 11,000 descriptions of research projects conducted in Canada's three northern territories (Yukon, the Northwest Territories, and Nunavut) since 1974. Information about obtaining publications is provided at the search page. [KR]"
Extractions: Preparing for the exams Exams will mostly be short answer questions, like the quizzes. You may need to do some simple math. The two books, lectures, presentation materials, quizzes, exercises, and the video tapes overlap in many respects. Each reinforces the other and each is of value for understanding the oceans. Learn from and review each. Concentrate on concepts rather than isolated facts and terminology. I will avoid terminology as much as possible. EXAMPLES: Do not memorize people's names or dates! Do not memorize the many terms for parts of the shore system! Do not memorize the names of all of the ocean currents. Do understand how waves interact with the shore, including the formation of longshore drift currents. Do understand the plate tectonic system, its parts, and how it works. Do understand the forces that drive the winds and ocean currents, and how equatorial currents and the subtropical gyres work. Try to understand how things work as a system rather than just memorizing the details. EXAMPLES:
Extractions: Melbourne, 25-28 th March, 2002 Such initiative has been set in a moment of profitable collaboration between the two Countries by visits between the respective Ministries of Research (from which has emerged a common strategy in relation to the individual objectives with regards to national programs of research) and with stronger ties of collaboration between universities, centers of research and firms. The Conference aimed to satisfy the following objectives: to create a strong synergy between the academic worlds and the centers of public and private research of the two Countries. In particular, the Italian technical science was presented as a partner able to promote a significant flow of students and researchers in the respective areas of excellence. In fact, on particular themes, Italy could be a valid alternative to the natural attraction that American, or in general the Anglo-Saxon Universities exert over Australia; to respond to the current needs of research and innovation of the firms of the two Countries and, at the same time, address the commercialization of the specific research outcomes towards a vast entrepreneurial network;

Extractions: I. Participation in International Programs As a result of its development, the NCMR participates increasingly in several International research Programs and activities. A selection of the International Programs in which we participate are outlined below. 1. European Union MAST (Marine Science and Technology Program) The objective of the research under the MAST program, is to understand the functioning of marine systems around Europe, both in-shelf and deep seas, and thus to contribute to establishing the scientific and technical basis for their exploitation, management and protection. Projects are distributed over a wide range of disciplines in marine science, in coastal zone research and in marine technology. Programs conducted within the framework of the MAST Program include: PELAGOS / CINCS MTP-I MATER MTP-II METROMED ENV (Environment and Climate Program) The European Union Web Page concerning this Program can be entered through here. ELOISE FAIR (Fisheries and Agriculture Program) The FAIR program aims to obtain a better knowledge of the deep sea ecosystems, which are now more and more intensively exploited by bottom fisheries. The program concentrates on those deep sea ecosystems which may initially provide high cpue for various target species, but their potential for a sustained exploitation is still unknown. The program covers most of the North Atlantic and Mediterranean waters; its major objectives are to review all the information on past and present deep sea fisheries (catches and dumping's), to make available the considerable scientific knowledge already collected about these areas and to improve the biological knowledge about the species caught.
