Project Manager and Chief Editor, United Nations Atlas of the Oceans. The Atlas is Internet-based, with information relevant to sustainable development of the oceans and to advancement of science. It is designed for policy makers, scientists and resource managers but is also a major attraction to the public and students. The Atlas includes: 1. an encyclopedic About the Oceans section from how oceans were formed, to their physiology, biology, and climatology, including maps and data bases; 2. the Uses of the oceans from sources of food, livelihood, recreation and energy to conservation, shipping, mining; and, 3. Ocean Issues such as food security, governance, global change, and pollution.The Atlas is at

Interests in Climate Change: Dr. Everett led work for the IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) on five impact analyses from 1988-2000: Fisheries (Convening Lead Author), Polar Regions (Co-Chair), Oceans (Lead Author), and Oceans and Coastal Zones (Co-Chair/2 reports). He also was a Contributing Expert in developing the IPCC Impact Assessment Methodology protocol. See IPCC Nobel Prize recognitionIPCC Nobel Prize Recognition to John T. Everett. Since leaving NOAA, he has kept abreast of the literature in these areas, talked to many individuals and groups and has maintained these subjects on the UN Atlas of the Oceans, where he is the Chief Editor and Project Manager. As time permits, he reviews IPCC documents for IPCC (as an Expert Reviewer) and for the US. See his US Congressional testimony on the Impacts of Climate Change on the Oceans and Coastal Zones and Fisheries and on Ocean Acidification.

He received the NOAA Administrator’s Award for “accomplishments in assessing the impacts of climate change on global oceans and fisheries.”Climate Change Award to John T. Everett

He was assigned the climate change duties when he was the NOAA/National Marine Fisheries Service Division Chief for Fisheries Development in the 1970s. The agency was very concerned about the impact of climate change on the US fisheries and fishing industry. Global cooling would be devastating to our fisheries and aquaculture. About 1987, the momentum shifted to fears of global warming and as Director of Policy  and Planning for NOAA/NMFS, he was tasked to lead NMFS efforts in dealing with it. This switch makes him more cautious than many of his peers.  He has a website to help others see all sides of the argument and sort things out for themselves: http://www.ClimateChangeFacts.info.

Interests in Ecosystems: Since overseeing the NMFS contract for ecosystem modeling at MIT's Draper Lab in the 1970s, Dr. Everett has been actively involved in the furtherance of an ecosystems-based approach to fisheries management. Upon his retirement from NMFS, he received this plaque recognizing his contributions to fisheries science. Plaque recognizing contributions of Dr. John T. Everett to fisheries science

He has been studying the role of "forage fish" as predators (of fish eggs, larvae, and young) and as competitors with all young fish for zooplankton, for over a dozen years. His testimony on menhaden is the first public paper. He has also been studying the positive effects of dredging he observed as a commercial fisherman. The first report of this type was on the Impacts of Dredging to the NEFMC.

Dr. Everett is a Life Member of American Fisheries Society and of Betta Gamma Sigma academic honor society. He is also a Member of the Marine Technology Society, the Coastal Conservation Association, and the Chesapeake Bay Foundation.
