  • Barriers to Fish Passage in Nova Scotia the Evolution of Water Control Barriers in Nova Scotia’S Watershed
    Dalhousie University- Environmental Science Barriers to Fish Passage in Nova Scotia The Evolution of Water Control Barriers in Nova Scotia’s Watershed By: Gillian Fielding Supervisor: Shannon Sterling Submitted for ENVS 4901- Environmental Science Honours Abstract Loss of connectivity throughout river systems is one of the most serious effects dams impose on migrating fish species. I examine the extent and dates of aquatic habitat loss due to dam construction in two key salmon regions in Nova Scotia: Inner Bay of Fundy (IBoF) and the Southern Uplands (SU). This work is possible due to the recent progress in the water control structure inventory for the province of Nova Scotia (NSWCD) by Nova Scotia Environment. Findings indicate that 586 dams have been documented in the NSWCD inventory for the entire province. The most common main purpose of dams built throughout Nova Scotia is for hydropower production (21%) and only 14% of dams in the database contain associated fish passage technology. Findings indicate that the SU is impacted by 279 dams, resulting in an upstream habitat loss of 3,008 km of stream length, equivalent to 9.28% of the total stream length within the SU. The most extensive amount of loss occurred from 1920-1930. The IBoF was found to have 131 dams resulting in an upstream habitat loss of 1, 299 km of stream length, equivalent to 7.1% of total stream length. The most extensive amount of upstream habitat loss occurred from 1930-1940. I also examined if given what I have learned about the locations and dates of dam installations, are existent fish population data sufficient to assess the impacts of dams on the IBoF and SU Atlantic salmon populations in Nova Scotia? Results indicate that dams have caused a widespread upstream loss of freshwater habitat in Nova Scotia howeverfish population data do not exist to examine the direct impact of dam construction on the IBoF and SU Atlantic salmon populations in Nova Scotia.

  • NSTU Professional Association October Conference Venue Survey Report
    NSTU Professional Association October Conference Venue Survey Report Prepared by: Nova Scotia Teachers Union January 2006 Copyright Nova Scotia Teachers Union, 2006 1 Background There has been on-going discussion about the various venues used by NSTU Professional Associations for the annual October Conference. Some members and some associations have expressed the belief that a combination of logistics (meeting space and size, hotel accommodation, parking, etc.), tradition and member preference has effectively mandated the conference venue to be in the Metro Halifax area. Other members and associations have held that providing their conference at alternate locations around the province has provided greater flexibility and accessibility for teachers. Most of this opinion has rested on an anecdotal base and therefore could not be used to provide meaningful guidance to NSTU Professional Associations. At its meeting of January 20-22, 2005, the Provincial Executive passed the following motion: That the NSTU conduct a survey of the membership with respect to location of conferences, the rotation of association conferences on a province-wide basis and the use of satellite conference sites for large associations. A draft survey, key actions and timetable were developed and presented to the Professional Associations Coordination Committee at its meeting on November 4, 2005 for input, revision and approval. The survey was finalized and approval given for its distribution to teachers prior to December 2005. Methodology A survey instrument was developed (see Appendix B) to determine teachers’ views concerning the venue for the annual October Professional Association conferences. Specifically, this instrument sought to determine whether teachers supported distributing the conferences around the province, the preferred venues and if there was support for the concept of rotating venues.

  • Labour Day 2011 Returns to the Gaspereau Valley Wolfville, Nova Scotia September 2 to 5, 2011
    Labour Day 2011 Returns to the Gaspereau Valley Wolfville, Nova Scotia September 2 to 5, 2011 Long time members of the Maritime Organization of Rover Enthusiasts (MORE) will remember Labour Day in and around Wolfville back in 1999 and 2000. After years of resistance we, Julie and Peter Rosvall, will host Labour Day on our property once again. With the help of fellow Rover owners in our neighbourhood we will invite folks from across the Maritimes, New England, points west and internationally to our home. Kris Lockhart has been scouting and doing trail maintenance for so long already that the local joke is that by Labour Day 2011 he might have them paved if we don't watch out. All trailheads will be within 5 minutes of our property, and will have lots of options for every driving preference. Rosie Browning is taking the lead on food, after the great success of her desserts in Cape Breton. She has dreams of sandwiches made with roast beef and turkey (yes, real roast, really, cooked just prior to making the sandwiches, I'm drooling already). Rosie will be helped by a team of my relatives and our neighbours. All meals from Friday evening to Sunday night are provided on site, and the food will be amazing. I'm sure we'll have the Barr family put to work on this and other logistical details, and the Rudermans as well, and anyone else we can sucker in to volunteering leading up to the event and during. (willing volunteers can contact me using the coordinates below) Camping for the event will be on our property; tents will be setup among the cherry and pear trees, bordered by blackberry bushes.

  • Minas Basin, N.S
    An examination of the population characteristics, movement patterns, and recreational fishing of striped bass (Morone saxatilis) in Minas Basin, N.S. during summer 2008 Report prepared for Minas Basin Pulp and Power Co. Ltd. Contributors: Jeremy E. Broome, Anna M. Redden, Michael J. Dadswell, Don Stewart and Karen Vaudry Acadia Center for Estuarine Research Acadia University Wolfville, NS B4P 2R6 June 2009 2 Executive Summary This striped bass study was initiated because of the known presence of both Shubenacadie River origin and migrant USA striped bass in the Minas Basin, the “threatened” species COSEWIC designation, the existence of a strong recreational fishery, and the potential for impacts on the population due to the operation of in- stream tidal energy technology in the area. Striped bass were sampled from Minas Basin through angling creel census during summer 2008. In total, 574 striped bass were sampled for length, weight, scales, and tissue. In addition, 529 were tagged with individually numbered spaghetti tags. Striped bass ranged in length from 20.7-90.6cm FL, with a mean fork length of 40.5cm. Data from FL(cm) and Wt(Kg) measurements determined a weight-length relationship: LOG(Wt) = 3.30LOG(FL)-5.58. Age frequency showed a range from 1-11 years. The mean age was 4.3 years, with 75% of bass sampled being within the Age 2-4 year class. Total mortality (Z) was estimated to be 0.60. Angling effort totalling 1732 rod hours was recorded from June to October, 2008, with an average 7 anglers fishing per tide. Catch per unit effort (Fish/Rod Hour) was determined to be 0.35, with peak landing periods indicating a relationship with the lunar cycle.

Executive Summary During 15 through 20 July 2012, I traveled to Nova Scotia to obtain plant material that Dr. Sam Vander Kloet, Emeritus Professor at Acadia University had obtained during his life. Acadia University Conservatory, Wolfville, had about 100 accessions of subtropical Vaccinium (blueberry) and related genera. Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada had about 90 accessions of native North American Vaccinium in their field collections. On Monday 16 July through Wednesday 18 July 2012, I worked at the Herbarium and Conservatory of Acadia University working with Ruth Newell, the Curator. From Wednesday afternoon through Thursday, I worked with Dr. Andrew Jamieson, Small fruit Breeder and Geneticist, Agriculture and Agri- Food Canada. I obtained a total of 654 root and stem cuttings of the following genera: Cavendishia (62), Ceratostemma (7), Costera (1), Diogenesia (9), Disterigma (10), Macleania (25), Pernettya (13), Psammisia (7), Spyrospermum (7), and Vaccinium (513). I also obtained two accessions of seed including Vaccinium boreale (1000 count) and Fragaria vesca subsp. alba (2000 count).
