An Organization of the Scientific Investigation of the Indian Place«Nomenclatiire of the Maritime Provinces of Canada by W
FROM THE TRANSACTIONS OF THE ROYAL SOCIETY OF CANADA THIRD SERIES—1914 VOLUME vin An Organization of the Scientific Investigation of the Indian Place«nomenclatiire of the Maritime Provinces of Canada by W. F. GANONG. M.AHBb.E OTTAWA PRINTED FOR THE ROYAL SOCIETY OF CANADA 19 14 Transactions of The Royal Society of Canada SECTION II SERIES III DECEMBER 1914 VOL. VIII An Organization of the Scientific Investigation of the Indian Place- nomenclature of the Maritime Provinces of Canada, (Fourth Paper). By W. F. GANONG, M.A., Ph.D. (Read by Title May 27, 1914.) This paper is identical in aim and method with its three pre decessors, which were published in the immediately foregoing volumes of these Transactions. In a word, I am trying to apply the principles of scientific analysis to a very interesting subject especially prone to doubt and error. The comparative method which I use, explained in the introduction to the first paper, is proving wonderfully successful in solving the problems, as this paper will further illustrate. For convenience of reference I may add that the former papers made analysis of the names Oromocto, Magaguadavic, Upsalquitch, Manan, Nepisiguit, Kouchibouguac, Anagance, Wagan, Pokiok, Penniac, Bocabec, Pentagoet-Penobscot, Pohenegamook, and Cobs- cook, and used the roots thus made available in the analysis of a good many other words, both existent and extinct, of lesser importance. Of these extinct Indian names,—indigenous to the country, ap propriate to the places, and often reducible to a highly pleasing form, —the greater number may be revived to obvious advantage when additional place-names become needed in future; and I have tried to suggest simplified and softened forms for such purpose. -

Cast) Smolt-To- Adult Supplementation (Sas) Experiment Proposal (Phase 1: 2018-2022)
Canadian Science Advisory Secretariat National Capital Region Science Advisory Report 2018/014 REVIEW OF RISKS AND BENEFITS OF COLLABORATION FOR ATLANTIC SALMON TOMORROW'S (CAST) SMOLT-TO- ADULT SUPPLEMENTATION (SAS) EXPERIMENT PROPOSAL (PHASE 1: 2018-2022) The Miramichi River in New Brunswick, Canada, highlighting the two main sub-watersheds associated with the SAS experiments. Figure Smolt-to-adult supplementation (SAS) in the life courtesy of the CAST SAS Experiment Proposal: cycle of Atlantic salmon Phase 1 (2018-2022) (Linnansaari et al. 2017). Context: Recent broad-scale declines in marine survival suggest that the most substantial threat(s) to wild Atlantic salmon in eastern Canada are found in the marine environment, and that the resulting high marine mortality is the primary constraint to the recovery of Atlantic salmon populations (COSEWIC 2010). Smolt-to-adult supplementation (SAS) has been proposed by Collaboration for Atlantic Salmon Tomorrow (CAST), a multi-stakeholder group, as an activity to circumvent low marine survival and to increase the number of spawners and freshwater juvenile production in the Northwest Miramichi River system (New Brunswick). SAS would be a precedent-setting activity for supplementation of Atlantic salmon populations in DFO’s Gulf region, where populations are showing decline but are not yet at immediate risk of extinction. CAST has developed a SAS Experiment Proposal with the goals of determining if SAS is a functional conservation strategy that can be used to supplement Atlantic salmon populations in situations where conservation objectives are not being met due to high at-sea mortality, and to answer identified scientific knowledge gaps regarding the SAS conservation strategy. -
Support for Delineation of Inner Bay of Fundy Salmon Marine Critical Habitat Boundaries in Minas Basin and Chignecto
Canadian Science Advisory Secretariat Maritimes Region Science Response 2015/035 SUPPORT FOR DELINEATION OF INNER BAY OF FUNDY SALMON MARINE CRITICAL HABITAT BOUNDARIES IN MINAS BASIN AND CHIGNECTO BAY Context In April 2014, the Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) Species at Risk Management Division (SARMD) in the Maritimes Region requested information from DFO Science to assist with the delineation of boundaries for critical habitat (CH) being considered for Inner Bay of Fundy (IBOF) Atlantic Salmon within Chignecto Bay and Minas Basin, specifically: to assist with the delineation of the boundary between estuarine and marine habitat for several large, tidal estuaries (i.e., Petitcodiac River, Avon River, Salmon River Colchester, Shubenacadie River estuary and Cumberland Basin). DFO Science had previously provided advice on the characteristics and general location of important marine and estuarine habitat for IBOF salmon (DFO 2008; DFO 2013); however, additional information was requested to assist in delineating the precise boundaries of important marine habitat within Chignecto Bay and Minas Basin in order to subsequently propose, describe and map these as CH within an amended Recovery Strategy for IBOF salmon. Once identified in the Recovery Strategy, measures will be taken to protect this marine CH under the Species at Risk Act (SARA). This Science Response Report results from the Science Response Process of 11 July 2014 on Support for Delineation of Inner Bay of Fundy Salmon Marine Critical Habitat Boundaries. Background The inner Bay of Fundy populations of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) are listed as Endangered under the Species at Risk Act, and SARA requires the identification of CH for endangered species within a Recovery Strategy (or Action Plan). -

Maritime Sediments, Vol. 5, No. 3, December 1969, pp. 101-112. 95 Sediments of the Bay of Fundy - A Preliminary Report* DONALD J. P. SWIFT Institute of Oceanography, Old Dominion University, Norfolk, Virginia BERNARD R. PELLETIER Atlantic Oceanographic Laboratory, Bedford Institute, Dartmouth, N. S. ANIL K. LYALL Smithsonian Institution, Washington, D. C. JAMES A. MILLER Department of Geology, University of Texas, Austin, Texas Introduction The Bay of Fundy (Fig. I) is a funnel-shaped body of water lying between Nova Scotia and the Canadian mainland. The Bay of Fundy proper is 144 kilometres long, 100 kilometres wide at the base. The northeast end bifurcates into northeast-trending Chignecto Bay, and the east-trending Minas Basin. The Bay has been incised into the red continental mudstones and sandstones, and tholeiitic basalts of a Triassic half-graben (Swift and Lyall, 1968a). Fundy was named Rio Rondo by 16th century Portuguese navigators who were impressed by its enormous tides. Fundy has tidal currents of 1. 5 to 4 knots in a water column averaging 75 metres deep. The bulk of Fundy's sediment cover was emplaced under subaerial conditions during the repeated glacial episodes of the Pleistocene, and these relict materials are evolving into sediments adjusted to the modern hydraulic regime. Where this process has run to completion, the resulting deposits bear the distinctive impress of a high energy tidal regime, a facies which has heretofore received little attention in the-Jiterature. FIGURE 1 - FIGURE 2- Bathymetry of the Bay of Fundy. Counterclockwise residual current system of tjie Bay of Fundy. Tides The tides of Fundy are semidiurnal and anomalistic (markedly higher during the lunar perigee than during the lunar apogee); and Fundy is famous for their enormous range. -
