Attention must also be given to the problems of regulating intensive fisheries for other- species including herring9 crabj, and some groundfisho A small but increas ing effort is spent on exploration for unused stocks,, A3 a background for all these projects it is necessary to improve our knowledge of physical and biological conditions in the sea and in fresh water, and of the factors con trolling the numbers and activities of the many species with which we are concerned„ Regulation
