  • Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) off Newfoundland Canada were once one of the most caught and eaten fish in the world. In 1992 the fishery collapsed and nearly 40,000 people lost their jobs overnight. Juvenile cod and many other heavily fished species use seagrass as a nursery. The healthier the seagrass is, the better fisheries will likely be.
