PO Box 3232, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada V6B 3X8 ocean.org | 604 659 3569 Project description for Ocean Wise Scientific Diving Field Research on Board One Ocean Expeditions Cruise (125352) While there is good knowledge of what lives on land in the Canadian Arctic and about marine mammals and fish, very little is known about what lives on or near the bottom of the ocean in many places in the High Arctic. Ocean Wise research scuba divers would like to dive in various locations around Cornwallis, Devon, Somerset, southern Ellesmere and North Baffin Islands to take photographs and video of life at the bottom and record what they see in order to identify and catalogue what is there. Our divers have been offered the opportunity to travel aboard the One Ocean Expeditions ship, the Akademik Ioffe, from August 14 to August 23 and will conduct their dives at the ship’s regular planned stops. The information will help us better understand what lives in these coastal areas and to track over time how things change. They will also collect some (1-5 of any one species) samples of fish and invertebrates (no mammals or large fish) in order to get their DNA, which is used to help identify species. They will record water temperature and other conditions as well. Some invertebrates and fish may also be collected for use by the Vancouver Aquarium for displays and exhibits. The dives will be non-destructive. They will collect a small number of fish and invertebrates by hand and using hand-held nets. Examples include anemones, sea stars urchins, etc. There will be four divers. They will dive from the Zodiacs, not from shore, and will not be using water or other resources. Planned locations include Dundas Harbour, Croker Bay and Maxwell Bay on Devon Island, Beechey Island, Port Leopold on Somerset Island, Elwin Inlet and Cape Hay on Baffin Island, and Craig Harbour on Ellesmere Island. They may also dive in Resolute Bay and offshore of Grise Fiord. Weather conditions might affect where they can dive. The information will be used to create a report that lists all the species identified at each location. We hope to continue this dive program and return to these sites each year to monitor for change, including the potential for non-native invasive species. This information will be made available to anyone interested. A copy of the report will be provided to the Resolute Bay HTA and Grise Fiord HTO. We hope to return to Resolute and Grise Fiord again next year and would be pleased to discuss the information in the report with the HTA/HTO and other interested community members. For further information, please contact Eric Solomon at [email protected] or 604-659-3496. .

Preliminary Results of Archaeological Investigations in the Bache Peninsula Region, Ellesmere Island, N.W.T
ARCnC VOL. 31, NO.4 (DEC.1978). P. 49474 Preliminary results of archaeological investigations in the Bache Peninsula region, Ellesmere Island, N.W.T. I ! PETER SCHLEDERMANN' INTRODUCTION The results of the 1977 archaeological investigations in the Bache Peninsula region on the east coast of Ellesmere Island, N.W.T. (Schledermann 1977) suggested that extensive prehistoric human occupation had taken place in the area over the last four millenia or more. Based upon an assessment of data collected in 1977, a number of research problems were slated for investigation during the 1978 season. The primary research focus centered upon the excavation of archaeological sites believed to represent various stages of the High Arctic cultural continuum from the initial arrival of the people of the Arctic Small Tool tradition (ASTt) to the later stages of the Thule culture occupations. To facilitate this stage of the investigations, two principal site areas were selected, each containing a number of individual sites of various cultural affiliations. The first area (Fig. 1, A) is located along the northeast coast of KnudPeninsula adjacent to a relativelylarge polynya which, according to LANDSAT images, begins to appear in late April or early May. The polynya is an expanse of water which remains free of solid ice cover considerably longer than the regular open water season. Upon arrival in this area in early July large numbers of walrus were observed in the polynya, and approximately 300 animals, distributed on 18 ice floes, were noted at one point. The second area of primaryinvestigation (Fig. 1, B) wasSkraeling Island located about 5 km northeast of the R.C.M.P.

Seabird Colonies and Distributions Around Devon Island and Vicinity1
Seabird Colonies and Distributions around Devon Island and Vicinity1 DAVID N. NETTLESHIP2 ABSTRACT. Nineteen glaucous gull (Larus hyperboreus) colonies, two Thayer’s gull (L. thayeri) colonies, andthree fulmar (Fulmnrusglacialis) colonies were recorded duringone intensive, and several short,aerial surveys around Devon Island in the summer of 1972. Observations were also made of distributions of seabirds at sea and at colonies on some adjacent islands (Dundas, Margaret, Baillie- Hamilton, and Cornwallis). Only 2 of the 29 colonies examined have been described previously. The greatimportance of LancasterSound to the present and future welfare of arctic seabirdsis discussed. RÉSUMÉ. Les colonies d‘osiseaur demer et leur distribution autourde de Devon et dans son voisinage. Au cours d’une reconnaissance aérienne importante et de plusieurs autres plus courtes autour de l’île de Devon à l’été 1972, on a relevé dix-neuf colonies de Goéland bourgmestre (Larus hyperboreus), deux de Mouette de Thayer (Larus thayeri) et trois de Fulmar boréal(Fulmarus glacialis). On a aussi observé la distribution des oiseaux en meret dans les colonies de quelques îles adjacentes (Dundas, Margaret, Baillie-Hamilton et Cornwallis). Deux seulement de ces 29 colonies ont déjà été décrites. L‘auteur discute de la grande importance du détroit de Lancaster pour le bien-être présent et futur des oiseaux de mer arctiques. PE3IOME.

Richard Et Al. 2001
ARCTIC VOL. 54, NO. 3 (SEPTEMBER 2001) P. 207–222 Summer and Autumn Movements and Habitat Use by Belugas in the Canadian High Arctic and Adjacent Areas P.R. RICHARD,1 M.P. HEIDE-JØRGENSEN,2 J.R. ORR,1 R. DIETZ3 and T.G. SMITH4 (Received 18 November 1999; accepted in revised form 25 January 2001) ABSTRACT. Twenty-one adult belugas (8M, 13F) were live-captured and instrumented with satellite-linked transmitters in the summer and fall of 1996. Twelve were captured in estuaries along the coast of Somerset Island in July and nine were captured in September in Croker Bay, SE Devon Island. This paper reports on the summer and autumn movements and dive depths of these animals from late July 1996 until the last tags ceased transmitting in November 1996. Of the 12 captured in July, 11 provided data for 30–126 days (mean = 84 days). Most of the animals moved rapidly to southern Peel Sound, where they all spent the month of August, making frequent deep dives, some of which were to depths near or at the seabed of the Franklin Trench. The belugas also used several bays along the coast of Prince of Wales Island and another one on Melville Peninsula. They left southern Peel Sound between late August and early September and moved rapidly to the south coast of Devon Island, many using Maxwell Bay and Croker Bay for several days. All belugas instrumented in Croker Bay in September, as well as the summer-tagged individuals that were still transmitting, moved east and north along the south and east coasts of Devon Island, eventually reaching Jones Sound and north Baffin Bay.

Glaciers in the Arctic 79
GLACIERSIN THE ARCTIC’ Robert P. Sharp* LACIERS are an important element of the arctic and subarctic environment. They strongly influence meteorological and climatological conditions andGhave local economic significance. Glaciers are delicately responsive to subtle climatological changes, and their behaviour provides a useful means of recognizing the nature and scale of these changes depending upon the degree to which the influence of the various glaciometeorological elements is under- stood (Wallkn, 1948; Hubley, 1954; Orvig, 1954). Useful data on mean annual temperatures in remote regions can be obtained from measurement of thermal regimen in polar glaciers (Ahlmann, 1953, p. 3). Academically, study of arctic glaciers will be especially valuable if Ahlmann (1953, p. 5) is right in supposing that the great Pleistocene ice-sheets were essentially polar in behaviour and temperature regimen. Recent interest in the nature and origin of “ice islands” inthe Arctic pack(Fletcher, 1950; Koenig et ai, 1952; Crary, Cotell, and Sexton, 1952; Montgomery, 1952; Crary, 1954; Debenham, 1954) demonstrates the need for study of arctic glaciers for practical and strategic reasons. The size, nature, and distribution of arctic and subarctic glaciers are treated descriptively in this compilation, which is necessarily based largely on the writings and observations of others. Essentially nothing offered is new or original, and, in spite of references sprinkled liberally through the text, it is not possible to acknowledge every word or thought. Recent air photographs will certainly result in modifications of the material presented. This compilation was prepared in 1949 for the EncyclopediaArctica, a project of the Stefansson Library supported by the Office of Naval Research.
