Prof. Parsons has received many honours in the course of his professional career, most notably the Japan Prize, 2001(the only Canadian ever to receive this very high honour). The citation (précis) for this prestigious award reads: Through his research devoted to obtaining a holistic understanding of how pelagic organisms are interconnected in the trophodynamic food-web of the sea, he has made a great contribution to the development of Biological Oceanography. His goal has been to present an alternative method for the management of fisheries, based on measuring the dynamic relationship between fish and their physical, chemical and bilogical environments.

Professor Emeritus at the University of British Columbia and Honorary Research Scientist at the Institute of Ocean Sciences, he has pioneered new approaches to fisheries management based on the relationship between marine life and its environment. The founding editor of Fisheries Oceanography, he has co-authored many seminal textbooks in his field. He was the first Canadian recipient of the prestigious Japan Prize in 2001, and in 2005, Fisheries and Oceans Canada established an award named in his honour.
