  • 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.

A new feature introduced in this edition is a section containing four essays: The HUDSON 70 Expedition by C.R. Mann Earth Sciences Studies in Arctic Marine Waters, 1970 by B.R. Pelletier Analysis of Marine Ecosystems by K.H. Mann Operation Oil by C.S. Mason and Wm. L. Ford They serve as an overview of the focal interests of the past two years in contrast to the body of the Review, which is basically a series of individual progress reports. The search for petroleum on the continental shelves of Eastern Canada and Arctic intensified considerably with several drilling rigs and many geophysical exploration teams in the field. To provide a regional depository for the mandatory core samples required from all drilling, the first stage of a core storage and archival laboratory was completed in 1970. This new addition to the Institute is operated by the Resource Administration Division of the Department of Energy, Mines & Resources. In a related move the Geological Survey of Canada undertook to establish at the Institute a new team whose primary function will be the stratigraphic mapping of the continental shelf.

  • 1. Canadian Marine SCIENCE from Before Titanic to the Establishment of the Bedford Institute of Oceanography in 1962 Eric L. Mills
    HISTORICAL ROOTS 1. CANADIAN MARINE SCIENCE FROM BEFORE TITANIC TO THE ESTABLISHMENT OF THE BEDFORD INSTITUTE OF OCEANOGRAPHY IN 1962 Eric L. Mills SUMMARY Beginning in the early 1960s, the Bedford Institute of Oceanography consolidated marine sciences and technologies that had developed separately, some of them since the late 19th century. Marine laboratories, devoted mainly to marine biology, were established in 1908 in St. Andrews, New Brunswick, and Nanaimo, British Columbia, and it was in them that Canada’s first studies in physical oceanography began in the early 1930s and became fully established after World War II. Charting and tidal observation developed separately in post-Confederation Canada, beginning in the last two decades of the 19th century, and becoming united in the Canadian Hydrographic Service in 1924. For a number of scientific and political reasons, Canadian marine sciences developed most rapidly after World War II (post-1945), including work in the Arctic, the founding of graduate programs in oceanography on both Atlantic and Pacific coasts, the reorientation of physical oceanography from the federal Fisheries Research Board to the federal Department of Mines and Technical Surveys, increased work on marine geology and geophysics, and eventually the founding of the Bedford Institute of Oceanography, which brought all these fields together. Key words: Canadian marine science, Atlantic and Pacific biological stations, charting, tides, hydrography, post-World War II developments, origin of BIO. E-mail: [email protected] The Bedford Institute of Oceanography (BIO) opened formally in 1962 Europe decades before. The result, achieved with the help of university (Fig. 1), bringing together scientists and technologists who had worked in biologists, was an organizational structure, the Board of Management of fields as diverse as physical oceanography, hydrographic charting, marine the Biological Station (became the Biological Board of Canada in 1912), geology, and marine ecology.

  • Convoy Cup Mini-Offshore Race September 12, 2020
    Notice of Race Convoy Cup Mini-Offshore Race September 12, 2020 1. Organizing Authority: These races are hosted by the Dartmouth Yacht Club of Dartmouth, Nova Scotia. 2. Objectives: The Convoy Cup Ocean Race offers racing and cruising yachts an opportunity to participate in an ocean race to commemorate the links that formed between the province of Nova Scotia and the countries of Europe during the two world wars. Halifax was the congregation point for hundreds of naval vessels and supply ships that formed convoys to transport the necessities of life across the Atlantic Ocean; this race is dedicated to the memory of all those men and women in the navy and merchant marine service who sailed in those convoys. 3. Rules: Racing will be governed by the Racing Rules of Sailing 2017-2020 (RRS), the prescriptions of the Canadian Yachting Association and this Notice of Race except as modified by the Sailing Instructions. Dartmouth Yacht Club Race Committee (RC) will have final authority on all matters. 4. Description: Normally the Convoy Cup is an overnight 100 n/m ocean race and a Basin Race is also held. This season is quite different due to the COVID 19 pandemic so the event this year has been changed to a mini-offshore race. The Convoy Cup Mini-Offshore Race will be comprised of 1 race of approximately 30 n/m (course and distances may be adjusted according to forecast winds and conditions). 5.
