The threat of oil exploration and the extension of the United States and Canada's fishery limits to 200 miles in the 1970s led to fisheries and jurisdiction disputes over these productive fishing grounds. These prompted the publication of this massive review of the natural science of the bank. Geology, oceanography, ecology and fisheries in great depth.
