The geology of the southern portion of the Province of New Brunswick lias long been wrapped in much obscurity, and many different and discordant opinions have been given with reference to the age and distribution of its rock -formations. The highly metamorphic character of its deposits, and the supposed absence of determinable fossils, together with the difficulties to be overcome in tracing the relationships of different groups, where much of the country is still in a wilderness condition, have all contributed in retarding the acquisition of any accurate knowledge of this interesting district. Within the last few years, however, much further light has been thrown upon the geology of this region. Through the labours of Dr. Dawson of Montreal, Professor Hitchcock of Massachusetts, and other eminent natu- ralists, but largely also through the agency of a few young geologists of Saint John, much of the obscurity which so long prevailed has been removed. Careful observations have been accumulating, and discoveries of great interest have from time to time been made ; and though much yet remains to be done in working out the history and character of this extensive and intricate dis- trict, considerable progress has been accomplished, and many of the groups represented may now be co-ordinated with the corresponding groups of other countries. It has been the object of the Survey, undertaken during the past summer, to collect together the materials thus accumulated, and, taking the facts already known as a basis, to carry on these observations over wider districts. In the pursuit of this object, by far the most interesting and valuable which can at present be undertaken, I have had the cooperation and assistance of those to whom the Province is especially indebted tor the labours which tirst threw a positive light on the age of these obscure groups, Messrs. Geo. F. Matthew, and C. F. Hartt, of Saint John. These gentlemen, during a por- tion of the summer, have been my travelling companions, and many of the observations hereafter mentioned were made by the one or the other, or by the three conjointly. Mr. Matthew's intimate acquaintance with the varied and puzzling metamorphosed nx'ks of the lower Counties has been of special service, while the professional studies of Mr. Hartt, together with his expe- rience among the allied formations of Nova Scotia, have well adapted him for the study of the organic forms, which many of these rocks contain, INTRODUCTION. Before proceeding to give an explanation of the districts which have been examined during the past season, it will be necessary first to briefly review what has already been published on this subject. The lower portion of JST ew Brunswick, especially including the Counties of Charlotte, King's, Saint John, and Albert, has been long known to be composed of rocks chiefly of a metamorphic character, extending, somewhat irregularly, from the western boundary of the Province eastward as far as Shepody Mountain, in the County of Albert, where they were known to gra- dually disappear under deposits of carboniferous age. These metamorphic rocks, though extensively altered, were early recognized as being in large part sedimentary, being composed, as usual, of sandstones, conglomerates, shales, and limestones ; but these were found to be so intricate in structure, and so much confused by the occurrence of beds of volcanic origin, that little if any attempt was made to separate them into groups, or to determine their relative age and distribution. By Dr. Gesner, who first undertook a systematic survey of the Province, but at a time when the ideas entertained of geological phenomena were much more vague than at present, the general character of the district to be described was recognized, and a division made into several groups. To the westward of the Saint John River, and in the County of Charlotte, the exist- ence of a broad belt of granitic rocks, extending from the neighbourhood of Saint Stephen to the Saint John River, was pointed out, as was also the occurrence of another district southward of the above, and consisting prin- cipally of syenite and trap. The latter band of rocks was stated to be con- tinuous across the Peninsula of Kingston, and to constitute the broken tract of country eastward of the Saint John, in the neighbourhood of Loch Lo- mond, and thence to Shepody Mountain. South of the above, and stretching across the entrance of the Saint John, another group of rocks, classed as Silurian, and consisting of syenite, slate, and trap, with large beds of altered limestone, was pointed out, and stated to extend eastwardly into the County of Albert. The syenite was described as forming an anticlinal, against the slopes of which reposed the rocks of sedimentary origin. The limestones of the group, though well developed at the outlet of the Saint John, were found to be comparativel}7 local, not extending to the eastward beyond the Hammond River. To the west, how- ever, limestones, referred to the same group, were found at several points in the County of Charlotte. The slates and "greywacke" of this system, on the eastern side of the Saint John, which were described as containing the remains of plants and mollusks, were stated to be of wider distribution, running parallel to, and leaning upon the "primary" rocks through their whole extent. Yet another group of altered rocks, consisting of micaceous, chloritic and talcose slates, with sandstones, conglomerates- and trap beds, and largely developed in the neighbourhood of Mispeck and Black River, was pointed out, and from the evidence of apparent unconformability and the absence of INTRODUCTION. fossils, was pronounced to be of earlier origin than the group already referred to as Silurian, and, like the syenite in the interior, was denominated "pri- mary." It will hereftftet be seen that these rocks are really newer than any of the groups above described. ^ Upon the western side of the Saint John, the relations of the several groups were less clearly distinguished, and the geology of that portion of the Province has always been in great confusion. The great alteration of the deposits represented, the abundance and variety of volcanic beds, and the disconnected nature of the observations made, have all contributed to this result. Besides the band of granite above alluded to, however, the existence of a wide spread series of micaceous slates, frequently associated with trap- pean beds, was recognized, and was found to occupy a considerable area in the western portion of the Province, extending along both flanks of the anticlinal* o-ranitie axis, and thence bending northward and eastward to meet another and yet more extensive granitic range, occupying a wide belt of country, and stretching from the Cheputneticook Lakes completely across the Province. These rocks were classed as the Cambrian system. In the triangular space thus left, extending over an immense area, and widening from its western limit, the Oromocto Lakes, was placed the great coal field of the Province, separated however from the Cambrian system by a bed of sandstones, of variable thickness and occasional beds of limestone. The age of the limestone was rightly referred to the base of the Carbon- iferous system. The sandstones, surrounding the coal measures, and along its northern and southwestern sides consisting of but a narrow belt, were found to widen greatly to the southeast, occupying an extended area in King's and West- morland, stretching indeed from the Ivennebeccasis and the Belleisle, east- ward beyond Moncton. Southward of the latter place and along a space of considerable width, extending through the central portion of Albert into the Parish of Sussex, other sandstones were pointed out and referred to the true Coal Measures.

  • 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).

    Impact sf a T%dal Power Seation on Zospla&ton-Fish PniZteractB~~nsin Wmaa Basin Graham R. Daborn Gail S, Brown and Brian Scully Department of Biology Acadia University Wolfville, N.S. BOP 1x0 ABSTRACT Study of zooplankton populations in inner reaches of the Bay of Fundy, particularly in Minas and Cumberland Basins, has indicated that the zooplankton association is of limited diversity and highly contagious dis- tribution, All species are common estuarine ones that are either omnivor- ous or carnivorous and are utilized primarily by larval and early Juvenile stages of fish. With increasing size some fish switch to feeding on ben- thic prey which is seen as a reflection of the relatively greater abundance and/or productivity of the benthos in completely mixed waters, Construc- tion at the B9 site will reduce vertical mixing in some portions of the headpond and consequently decrease SPM levels and increase light penetra- tion. Increased phytoplankton production will compensate in part for de- creased production of benthic algae and provide a more varied food supply for zooplankton. Some increase in diversity, but not necessarily in abun- dance or production of zooplankton, is indicated as the detritus-based estuarine forms are augmented by algivorous species. Visual predation by zooplankton and fish is presently restricted by high turbidity. With de- creased SPM levels some new predators should extend into Cobequid Bey for feeding. Decreased tidal scour in many areas will allow development of a mixed deposit- and suspension-feeding benthos with indirect effects on the zooplankton. Competition for suspended food will probably limit increases in abundance of zooplankton within the headpond.

Chcąc zmierzyć się z zadaniem kompilacji tego rodzaju słownika, autor miał dość mgliste wyobrażenie na temat rozmiarów czekającej go pracy i ilości materiałów, jakie trzeba będzie zgro− madzić i opracować. Świadomość ogromu pracy, jaka go czeka, wzrastała jednak, w miarę jak zbliżał się do końca pracy nad częścią pierwszą, która ostatecznie ukazała się w roku 2000 jako trzeci tom publikowanej przez Centrum serii „Materiały Opracowania”. Udało się w niej na 252 stronach zmieścić pierwszą setkę biogramów. Ponieważ zawierającej kolejne 100 biografii części drugiej, nad którą pracę autor ukończył w roku 2004, nie udało się wydać w ramach wspomnianej serii, należało poszukać innej drogi, by udostępnić czytelnikom opra− cowany materiał. Jednocześnie pojawiła się też potrzeba zarówno wznowienia pierwszej części, której niewielki nakład został w krótkim czasie wyczerpany, jak i skorygowania błędów, które się w niej pojawiły i wprowadzenia uzupełnień opartych na materiałach źródłowych, jakie udało się autorowi zgromadzić od czasu jej wydania. Opracowany materiał postanowił on ponadto uzupełnić biogramami, które nie weszły do obu ukończonych już części, i biogramami, które powstały po ukończeniu części drugiej.

    THE LATEST ARTINSKIAN/KUNGURIAN (EARLY PERMIAN) FLORA FROM TREGIOVO-LE FRAINE IN THE VAL DI NON (TRENTINO, NORTHERN ITALY) Additional and revised edition 2013 by MICHAEL WACHTLER Thomas Perner and Michael Wachtler: Permian Fossil plants from Europe 81 THE LATEST ARTINSKIAN/KUNGURIAN (EARLY PERMIAN) FLORA FROM TREGIOVO-LE FRAINE IN THE VAL DI NON (TRENTINO, NORTHERN ITALY) Additional and revised edition 2013 by Michael Wachtler P. P. Rainerstrasse 11, 39038 Innichen, Italy; E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The description of the latest Artinskian/Kungurian Permian flora from Tregiovo-Le Fraine (Val di Non, Trentino, Northern Italy), initiated in 2012, will be extended. Mainly, we have to do this with a conifer-dominated flora accompanied by other variegated plants, some also with autochthonous traits. The conifer Ortiseia daberi n. sp., due to different seed-scales and leaves, now displaces Ortiseia leonardii, a principally Upper Permian character conifer. Other widespread conifers are Cassinisia ambrosii, Trentia treneri, Albertia scopolii and Walchia viallii nov. comb. Some were also found in connection with leaves and fructifications, which enhances the potential for identification. The ovuliferous organ Peltaspermum meyeri n. sp., belonging to the group of Peltaspermales, found in straight connection with Lepidopteris foliage indeed is the dominating seed fern. However, Autunia conferta is also present. Scolecopteris sp. and Ozolia franei amplifies the number of species but are too poorly preserved to define further evaluations. The ferns are represented mainly by Sphenopteris suessi, described just in 1869 by H. B. GEINITZ from the mainly coeval and contiguous Collio Formation. The Ginkgophyta Baiera pohli n. sp., based on a very rudimentary leaf-organisation, differs essentially from the well-known Upper Permian Sphenobaiera digitata.
