Gazetteer of Yukon Gazetteer of Yukon Updated: May 1, 2021 Yukon Geographical Names Program Tourism and Culture Yukon Geographical Place Names Program The Yukon Geographical Place Names Program manages naming and renaming of Yukon places and geographical features. This includes lakes, rivers, creeks and mountains. Anyone can submit place names that reflect our diverse cultures, history and landscape. Yukon Geographical Place Names Board The Yukon Geographical Place Names Board (YGPNB) approves the applications and recommends decisions to the Minister of Tourism and Culture. The YGPNB meets at least twice a year to decide upon proposed names. The Board has six members appointed by the Minister of Tourism and Culture, three of whom are nominated by the Council of Yukon First Nations. Yukon Geographical Place Names Database The Heritage Resources Unit maintains and updates the Yukon Geographical Place Names Database of over 6,000 records. The Unit administers the program for naming and changing the names of Yukon place names and geographical features such as lakes, rivers, creek and mountains, approved by the Minister of Tourism and Culture, based on recommendations of the YGPNB. Guiding Principles The YGPNB bases its decisions on whether to recommend or rescind a particular place name to the Minister of Tourism and Culture on a number of principles and procedures first established by the Geographic Names Board of Canada. First priority shall be given to names with When proposing names for previously long-standing local usage by the general unnamed features—those for which no public, particularly indigenous names in local names exist—preference shall be the local First Nation language. given to names from native languages, names that describe the feature, name The board has no jurisdiction over the associated with historical events, and names of municipalities, parks, territorial names of people who have made an divisions, or other legal bodies that have important contribution to the area where been created by, or result from, legislation. the place name is proposed.

Only Official Names will be produced in official publications in either traditional or electronic forms. Alternate Name - means a geographic name, which has been approved by the Minister of Tourism and Culture upon recommendation of the YGPNB, and which is different from the official name and which is in common and/or local use. Officially recognized Alternate Names facilitate the preservation of First Nation languages. There can be up to four Alternate Names for one feature. Map Reference The purpose of this column is to assist the user when a map is required. The map is at the 1:50,000 scale, being the largest scale of the NTS available for the majority of Yukon. It should be noted that some of the names in the Gazetteer of Yukon may not be found on the referenced 1: 50,000 map. This may occur because of congestion of named features, the small size of the named feature at that scale, or because the name was approved after the publication of the current edition of the map.

It seems that summer has kicked into gear in many parts of North America a little early. The grass is turning green, the trees are beginning to bud and the snow shovels are put away for the season. There’s been a little bit of tropo. There’s been a little bit of skip in the south. There’s also been some horrible storms and tornados in places. We hope everyone is okay and stayed out of danger. This month we find that Ken Simon (Lake Worthless, FL) has rejoined the club.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This was produced from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure you of complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark it is an indication that the film inspector noticed either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, or duplicate copy. Unless we meant to delete copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed, you will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. If copyrighted materials were deleted you will find a target note listing the pages in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photo­ graphed the photographer has followed a definite method in “sectioning” the material. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete.

  • Glaciomarine Sedimentation at the Continental Margin of Prydz Bay, East Antarctica: Implications on Palaeoenvironmental Changes During the Quaternary
    Alfred-Wegener-Institut für Polar- und Meeresforschung Universität Potsdam, Institut für Erd- und Umweltwissenschaften Glaciomarine sedimentation at the continental margin of Prydz Bay, East Antarctica: implications on palaeoenvironmental changes during the Quaternary Dissertation zur Erlangung des akademischen Grades Doktor der Naturwissenschaften (Dr. rer. nat.) in der Wissenschaftsdisziplin “Geowissenschaften” eingereicht an der Mathematisch-Naturwissenschaftlichen Fakultät der Universität Potsdam von Andreas Borchers Potsdam, 30. November 2010 Das Höchste, wozu der Mensch gelangen kann, ist das Erstaunen. J. W. von Goethe Acknowledgements This dissertation would not have been possible without the support and help of numerous people to whom I would like to express my gratitude. First, I am highly indebted to PD Dr. Bernhard Diekmann for the possibility to conduct this work under his supervision and for his constant support, whenever discussion or advice was needed. I appreciated his vast expertise and knowledge of marine geology, sedimentology and Quaternary Science that he so enthusiastically shared with me, adding considerably to my experience. Besides being a full-hearted geologist, he is also a great guitarist, which I enjoyed during the past years, especially during the expeditions I had the chance to participate. I would also like to thank Prof. Dr. Hans-Wolfgang Hubberten for his general support and understanding, giving me the opportunity to broaden my knowledge of marine geology in the field. Using the infrastructure of the institute in Potsdam, Bremerhaven and on the world’s oceans has made a major contribution realizing this work. I am deeply grateful to Prof. Dr. Ulrike Herzschuh and Dr. Gerhard Kuhn who provided a large part of assistance by discussions, constructive advices and moral support.
