Late in the 20th Century, participants in a trans-jurisdictional fisheries research network in the Great Laurentian Basin collaborated with participants of other research networks (waterfowl, piscivorous birds, benthic insects, plankton, bacteria, meteorology, hydrology, etc.) in a mega-scale happening during the years 1967 to 1992 that I call ‘The Great Laurentian Spring’. With a basin-wide version of adaptive management, the scientific researchers collaborated with citizen activists, private entrepreneurs, commission facilitators and governmental administrators in remediating harm done to the natural living features of the Great Laurentian Basin, particularly in the preceding 150 years. Like the degradation process that preceded it, the remediation process had features of a self-organizing movement that became complex beyond the ability of participants and observers to fully describe and explain it. Here I offer as an hypothesis, a rough sketch of how fisheries networkers in the Great Laurentian Basin came to play a role of helping to conserve valued fisheries and preserve vulnerable species during the degrading pre-Great Laurentian Spring period and then to help remediate harmful stresses, rehabilitate fisheries and prevent further degradation during the Great Laurentian Spring period and since then. In general fisheries researchers performed empirical science in responsible ways, with emphasis on the fish and on their habitats, and thus on the health of the aquatic ecosystems. Occasionally, the strongly modified natural system could be managed to produce major fisheries benefits, at least temporarily. The Scot T. Reid’s Common Sense science contributed to the American C.S. Peirce’s Pragmatism and together they informed the German A. Thienemann’s Limnology and the Canadians W.E. Ricker’s and F.E.J. Fry’s Fisheries Science. All along, mathematics of increasing sophistication played a role. Reputable criticisms of scientific inferences as well as untested and disreputable rhetoric of science deniers were taken seriously by the researchers.

在 19 世纪和 20 世纪期间应用于大劳伦森盆地内的鱼类和渔业的关于生态发生科学的候选假设

20 世纪后期，Great Laurentian Basin 跨辖区渔业研究网络的参与者与其他研究网络（水禽、食鱼鸟类、底栖昆虫、浮游生物、细菌、气象学、水文学等）的参与者合作进行了一次大型研究。 -规模发生在 1967 年到 1992 年期间，我称之为“伟大的劳伦斯之春”。借助全流域版本的适应性管理，科学研究人员与公民活动家、私营企业家、委员会促进者和政府管理人员合作，修复对大劳伦森盆地自然生活特征造成的损害，尤其是在过去 150 年中。就像之前的退化过程一样，补救过程具有自组织运动的特点，变得复杂，参与者和观察者无法对其进行全面描述和解释。在这里，我提供了一个假设，粗略地描述了大劳伦琴盆地的渔业网络人员如何在大劳伦琴前春季退化期间发挥帮助保护有价值的渔业和保护脆弱物种的作用，然后帮助补救有害压力，恢复渔业并防止在大劳伦琴之春期间和此后的进一步退化。一般来说，渔业研究人员以负责任的方式开展实证科学，重点关注鱼类及其栖息地，从而关注水生生态系统的健康。偶尔，可以对经过强烈改造的自然系统进行管理，以产生主要的渔业效益，至少是暂时的。苏格兰人 T. Reid 的常识科学为美国 CS Peirce 的实用主义做出了贡献，他们一起为德国人 A. Thienemann 的湖沼学和加拿大人 WE Ricker 和 FEJ Fry 的渔业科学提供了信息。一直以来，日益复杂的数学都发挥了作用。研究人员认真对待对科学推论的有名批评以及未经证实和声名狼藉的科学否认者的言论。日益复杂的数学发挥了作用。研究人员认真对待对科学推论的有名批评以及未经证实和声名狼藉的科学否认者的言论。日益复杂的数学发挥了作用。研究人员认真对待对科学推论的有名批评以及未经证实和声名狼藉的科学否认者的言论。
