1 August 2012 Vol. 37, # 8 THE WACOM HAM INSIDE THIS ISSUE: WACOM President’s Message—2 DXpeditions Feature — St Pierre et Miquelon—8-10 WACOM General Information—3 West Alex Fair/5K Labor Day Run – 11 WACOM Meeting Minutes - 4 WACOM Hamfest Flyer – 11 Upcoming Events—5 WACOM Annual Picnic –12 WACOM DX Corner—6 WACOM Renewal Form - 13 WACOM Annual Picnic –7 2011 West Alexander Fair FP-land Coat-of-Arms 2011 WACOM Picnic 2 WACOM President’s Message - August 2012 Hello Radio ! ( That is usually how I preface my good morning "check in" to the K3PSP 146.79 repeater. ). Seem to be a group developing that calls into the repeater on a daily basis on their way to their "first stop" ( work , coffee, shop- ping ?? whatever) about 8-8:30am. You should try it , it's fun. Speaking of FUN, Our WACOM Picnic is Thursday August 2nd at our fa- vorite FIREHALL South Strabane VFD #1 (1696 East Maiden St, Washing- ton, PA 15301) @ 6 PM!! Bill—NY9H While it appears that Sherman Hemsley's day's on earth are gone, he might be "Movin' On Up " ; But WE ARE, as we are finally making headway with upgrading the .79 repeater. It had been moved from "Wheeler Hill" to 225 feet up the tower at Washington Park ( thanks to Dennis PSP and his crew, including Don YLR) . And so far, it indeed is showing the increased coverage the committee expected. While there may be some fine tuning, due to a new "RF" environment, it looks great so far. Especially along the Interstates, so do say "HI" whenever you hear a visitor passing. Sam has also extended his .49 radiator , and coverage with the addition of several more Rohn sections. One never knows who he will find when he turns on his HF ham radio. Yesterday, on 20 meter SSB, I worked a Puerto Rican station, which was a " Youth DX Adventure" mini expedition. Later, I found and contacted another " Youth DX " station, but on 17 meters TI5/ KS3P. That call belongs to Kaitlyn Cole the "young" daughter of Stan Cole NX3P formerly from South Franklin....they were busy making contacts , so I followed up with an email . Part of his response… [I] 'attended 5th grade at Morris Twp High School.. My class was the first year to go through the brand new McGuffey Middle School. My dad was AD3T (SK) and my mom is N3AOK and still lives in SF Twp. My daughter is Kaitlyn KS3P and she was the 2011 Amateur Radio Newsline Young Ham of the Year and she attended FDIM for the Build a Thon. I moved from PA in 2003 and now reside in north Alabama. I come back to PA rarely as work keeps me hoping. Kaitlyn and I are pretty active on HF and would love to talk to Wash, PA'. WOW ...... turn on that radio !!!!! Speaking of young people, WACOM TECH & GENERAL CLASSES begin on Tuesday Night, SEPT 4. 6:30 pm at "OUR" firehouse South Strabane VFD #1 (1696 East Maiden St, Washington, PA 15301) Class should be for 8 weeks, possibly with testing on the day following the last class. The General Class will follow shortly after. Our goal is to get everybody operating on HF. So far we've been very fortunate, as everyone has succeeded in passing. While the FREE classes are provided by WACOM , we need to have everyone at studying on the same page. We use the Gordon West study manuals ( about 24$ ) , which may be in stock at Radio Shack stores. We also request that you advise your intention to participate by sending an email to [email protected] . Please include your name ,address, phone, cell, and if you wish us to provide the manuals. Just prior to the first class we will place an order with the publisher. toner gone, 73 Bll NY9H/3 PS: I was successful in getting stuff destroyed by Verizon replaced/repaired & back on line! 3 WACOM OFFICERS, BOARD OF DIRECTORS, STAFF, REPEATERS, AND NETS!

  • Wind-Induced Barotropic Oscillations Around the Saint Pierre and Miquelon Archipelago (North-West Atlantic)

    Wind-Induced Barotropic Oscillations Around the Saint Pierre and Miquelon Archipelago (North-West Atlantic)

Le Cann b a IFREMER, Laboratoire d’Oc�eanographie Physique et Spatiale (LOPS), IUEM, Brest, France b CNRS, Laboratoire d’Oc�eanographie Physique et Spatiale (LOPS), IUEM, Brest, France ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT Keywords: We investigate the nearly barotropic oscillations recently observed around the Saint Pierre and Miquelon (SPM) Barotropic modelling archipelago. They were recorded by two ADCPs at about 30 m depth during winter and spring 2014. These Wind induced oscillations oscillations were the dominant signal on the currents with a period of 2–4 days. Our analysis shows that these Continental shelf wave oscillations were triggered by the wind. To investigate these oscillations, a 2D numerical model was implemented Saint Pierre and Miquelon archipelago at a regional scale. The results from a realistic simulation confirmed the impact of wind forcing on ocean dy­ Newfoundland namics in the region. They also showed amplificationof these oscillations around SPM, particularly in the north- west of the archipelago and near Burin Peninsula. Analyses suggested the influence of continental shelf wave dynamics at a ‘regional’ scale. This regional wave then triggers a ‘local’ scale continental shelf wave propagating anticyclonically around SPM in ~2 days. Schematic modelling simulations with periodic wind stress forcing and relaxation after a gust of wind show a strong current response in this region with a wind stress periodicity centred around 2 days, which is attributed to resonance in the SPM area.

  • Large Diurnal Bottom Temperature Oscillations Around the Saint Pierre

    Large Diurnal Bottom Temperature Oscillations Around the Saint Pierre

    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Large diurnal bottom temperature oscillations around the Saint Pierre and Miquelon archipelago Received: 30 January 2017 Pascal Lazure, Bernard Le Cann & Marion Bezaud Accepted: 28 August 2018 Here, we report large, near-daily oscillations of near-bottom temperatures, with ranges of up to 11.5 °C Published: xx xx xxxx at depths of 30–60 m in September 2011 around the Saint Pierre and Miquelon archipelago (south- eastern Canada). These oscillations were detected on velocity and temperature profles from moorings in Miquelon Bay and on an array of near-bottom temperature sensors around the archipelago. The oscillations coincided with the seasonal stratifcation period. In addition to their remarkable range, they exhibited a near-diurnal period centred on the O1 tidal component (~26 h), contrasting with the dominant semi-diurnal sea-level periodicity in the area. They appear to be the manifestation of an internal wave, triggered by the diurnal surface tide and trapped by the bathymetric confguration of the area. We argue that the archipelago is nearly resonant for island-trapped waves at near-diurnal frequencies. Our data demonstrate that these coastal-trapped waves propagate clockwise around the archipelago in roughly two days, and thus approximate an azimuthal, mode 2 pattern. Simplifed calculations show that cross-shore motions are bottom-amplifed. In addition, bottom friction acts to rotate the axes of the diurnal tidal current ellipses with depth, and this combination of efects explains the large range of observed bottom temperature oscillations. Large seabed temperature oscillations have been observed in shallow waters at many locations around the world.

GPS telemetry data of fifteen individuals of alcids (5 Razorbills 6 Common Murres and 4 Puffins) were analyzed to determine their distribution during the breeding period of 2016 at Saint Pierre and Miquelon Archipelago (SPM). Two analytical methods (threshold and a switching state-space model) were used to identify behavioral modes and foraging areas. We compared foraging movements and estimated the overlap between the species.
