  • Only a Matter of Time: the Impacts of the Cascadia Subduction Zone And
    Running head: ONLY A MATTER OF TIME Only a Matter of Time: The Impacts of the Cascadia Subduction Zone and Colonialism on Indigenous Communities in Vancouver Island Sydney M. Dyck Mount Royal University ONLY A MATTER OF TIME Abstract The Cascadia Subduction Zone is a fault line that runs seven hundred miles off of the coast of the Pacific Northwest, where two borders of tectonic plates meet and have been subducting for centuries (Schulz, 2015). This fault line poses the threat of an impending earthquake and tsunami, as the subduction zone will eventually give way to the enormous amounts of pressure on the undersea plates, triggering what Schulz calls a “seven-hundred-mile liquid wall that will reach the Northwest coast, on average, fifteen minutes after the earthquake begins” (2015). The devastation this earthquake and tsunami duo will unleash upon coastal British Columbia and the Pacific Northwest will inevitably be catastrophic, with approximately 7,000,000 people being at risk of exposure to this disaster and an estimated 71,000 people living directly in the inundation zone (Schulz, 2015). Kenneth Murphy, who directs the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s Region X, the division responsible for Oregon, Washington, Idaho, and Alaska, stated, “Our operating assumption is that everything west of Interstate 5 will be toast;” under this premise it is of utmost importance for us to consider those who are most vulnerable to the risks associated with a disaster of this size (Schulz, 2015). In this paper, I will be focusing on the potential effects that a natural disaster triggered by the Cascadia Subduction Zone could have on those living on Vancouver Island, specifically the Indigenous peoples who have populated the area for centuries.

  • Earthquakes in Southwestern British Columbia
    Earthquakes in southwestern British Columbia Southwestern British Columbia is one of the most seismically active regions in Canada. Approximately 400 earthquakes occur each year in the region extending from the north end of Vancouver Island to Seattle, Washington U.S. seen on the map below. About a dozen of these earthquakes are felt by people, but many of the larger earthquakes occur offshore. Earthquakes capable of causing structural damage happen every decade or so. What Causes Earthquakes? The surface or crust of the Earth is always moving. Large segments of this crust, called tectonic plates, continually shift against each other, causing stress to build-up. When the stress becomes too great, a sudden rupture or earthquake occurs along a zone of weakness called a fault, generating seismic waves. Earthquakes occur most Maintaining the frequently where tectonic plates interact - such as the Cascadia antennae that receive Subduction Zone of southwestern British Columbia. earthquake data from 15 Years of Earthquakes remote stations. 15 Years of Earthquakes 15 Years of Earthquakes 15 Years of Earthquakes The Cascadia Subduction Zone (CSZ) 50˚ 50˚ Southwestern British Columbia is located above the boundary between the oceanic Juan de Fuca Plate and the continental 50˚ Vancouver North American Plate.

Since the mid-1990s, the frequency and intensity of human-cougar interactions have dramatically increased. Concurrently, these areas have become increasingly popular for human activities. The primary goal of my study was to recommend ways to reduce the potential risk of human-cougar interactions to ensure long-term conservation of cougars while minimizing risks to visitor safety.

Photographs should be black and white glossy prints, 5x7, with caption and photographer's name on back. Manuscripts should be typed double-spaced and include writer's name, address and phone number. foreword Since the North Cascades National Park was indubi­ tably the event of this past year, this issue of The Mountaineer attempts to record aspects of that event. Many other magazines and groups have celebrated by now, of course, but hopefully we have managed to avoid total redundancy. Probably there will be few outward signs of the new management in the park this summer. A great deal of thinking and planning is in progress as the Park Serv­ ice shapes its policies and plans developments. The North Cross-State highway, while accessible by four­ wheel vehicle, is by no means fully open to the public yet. So, visitors and hikers are unlikely to "see" the changeover to park status right away. But the first articles in this annual reveal both the thinking and work which led to the park, and the think­ ing which must now be done about how the park is to be used.
