Cybium, the International Journal of Ichthyology, recently dedicated a full issue to the aquatic biodiversity and fisheries of Saint-Pierre and Miquelon (SPM), the last French territory in North America, located south-east of Newfoundland, and whose Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) is completely surrounded by the EEZ of Eastern Canada.

On October 16, 2022, most of the Sea Around Us team travelled to Salmon Arm, in south-central British Columbia, to witness spawning sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) in the Adams River.
Sea Around Us data users interested in learning how to perform stock assessments using the CMSY methodology now have access to a suite of free video tutorials.
On June 9, 2022, in the midst of what is known now as World Oceans Week, the Sea Around Us hosted a successful event to present The Ocean’s Whistleblower, the English version of Dr. Daniel Pauly’s biography – initially released in French under the title Daniel Pauly : un océan de combats.
Research produced by current and past members of the Sea Around Us has been included in what
is being described as “a definitive volume on large marine ecosystems.”
The book, titled Ocean
sustainability: Assessing and managing the world’s large marine ecosystems,
presents best assessment and management practices based on examples from 37
years of published peer-reviewed papers on large marine ecosystems or LMEs.
