PROSPECTUS FOR AN HxPANDED CALCOFI RESPARCH PROGRAM 
(By CALCOFI Committee) 
This document represents a reorganization, and proposed expansion of the 
program of surveys and research sponsored and coordinated by the Marine 
Research Committee of the Department of Fish and Game, State of California. 
The objectives of the program have been most recently stated as— 
“To acquire knowledge and understanding of the factors governing the 
abundance, distribution, and variation of the pelagic marine fishes. The 
oceanographic and biological factors affecting the sardine and its ecological 
associated in the California Current system will be given research emphasis. 
It is the ultimate aim of the investigations to obtain an understanding 
sufficient to predict, thus permitting efficient utilization of the species, and 
perhaps manipulation of the population.” 
It will become apparent that if the program that follows is adopted some 
revision of these objectives will be required, especially as regards conducting 
research designed to translate the results of the basic research into information 
directly usable by the public. Obviously, such a policy decision cannot be made 
without considerable consultation among and within the various agencies. 
; The projects are organized by major groupings associated with major objec- 
tives. Hxisting and currently funded projects are listed first, followed by list- 
ings of new proposal. These are presented briefly. Fuller descriptions includ- 
ing details of the plans are available and can be furnished as requested.
