(2) From: Julien Bergeron, "1e s~umon de 1a RiViere Port-Daniel", Actua1ites l1arines,3(3),18-21,1959. -5- The purpose of this work \'las to determine the survival of the smolts to the adult staze, and to determine the utilization of these fish. The search for finclipped adults \125 spread over a Hide area of eastern Canada, but was concentrated at the counting fep-ces on the rivers where smolts had been marked" and at a few ports ,;here large quantities of ,salmon o·lere landed. ' This report conta:lDs a summary of the numbers of commercial Newfoundland and Labrador salmon examined, and the numbers of finclipped fish found by the special ,observers. In addition, it contains a summary of the total salmon landings for tleufoundland 8.nd Labrador. A SUlT1r.lary of the exports of Atlantic salmon is included. A note on the use of the names Ne\{foundland and,Labrador is in order. Since 1965 "Newfoundland and Labrador" has been the official name of' the Province. "llel{foundland" by itself n01/ refers only to the islend of Newfoundland, and Labrador is the part of the province that is on the northeast portion of the Canadian mainland. Two observe~s were employed each sUlllr.1Br from 1953 to 1963. A university student was stationed at North Sydney, Nova Scotia, each year. This man was' hired by the Fisheries Research Board until 1959, and in the fo11mn.ng years, by the Nova Scotia Research Foundation. The observer was supervised by Dr. C. J. Kerswill of the Fisheries Research Board at St. Andre.ls, New Brunswick. The other observer, stationed at Saint John, Neu Brunswick, from 1953 to 1961, tlas a man, 11r. Ernest rhompson', who \Jorked'during the winters as a clerk in the shipping activities at the Saint John port and was \ole11 acquainted \olith local fishermen and fish dealers. He was hired by the Fisheries Research Board 21ld supervised 'by Dr. Kerswi11. In 1960, another position was established in Newfoundland, and the employee, a university student, \o1orked at Bonavista dUring June, and either at Port Union or St. Anthony during JulJ'. This obJervor ,ras also hired by the Fisheries Research Board at 3t. Andre\ls, New Brunsuick, out '.las supervised by A., R. Hurray of the FiSheries Research Board at St. John's, Heufoundland. L -6- 1 Figure 1. Map of eastern Canada showing the rivers where Atlantic salmon smolts were marked and the ports where the adults were examined. -7 - Large quantities of "fresh" NeNfoundland and Labrador salmon were shipped through North Sydney. These salmon uere gutted and headles9 and packed in ice in 1100den boxes, 100 pounds of salmon to a box. j,ost boxes contained fish of c.bout the srune size. Each box also contained a label stating the place and date packed, the number of salmon in the box, and the net .reight. Some of the salmon "ere re-iced at North Sydney before being shipped furt'1er, some were shipped on without being re-iced, and the remainder uere frozen. Three plants haTJdled salmon in North Sydney: North Sydne,,­ Agencies, :.l. B. Nickerson, and Leonard Ero·Ghers. North S,,-dney Agencies and Nickerson's t,aniled "fresh" salmon only. They received their shipments from :Janadian National Rail,mys coastal boats. These boats brou~ht salmon fro'll Port aux Basques. Salrilon uere shipped rail express to this tenninus from many places along the east coast a11d the southern portion of the uest coast of !'3'.~foun:aancl. Coastal boats also collected sa11l10n fro;;! several ;:>laces along the sOllth coast of the island. Leonard's chartered boats to collect sal);1on in northern Ne~Tfoundland and Labrador. These salmon >rere received "fresh" in ice but Nere subsequentlo' frozen. The observer visited each oE the plants ~·rhen they received their shipments of salmon. As the boxes Here being m,packed he noted the place and number packed from the labels. After 1961, he was also instructeCi to get the net \·/eight of the number in each box. At North Sydney Agencj.es and Nickerson's, each salmon was carefully examined to see if it nas suitable for re-icing. One man unpacked and examined the fish at each plant so the observer could easily look for salmon Hith missing fins. After the salmon had been examined, they IIere washed and repacked in ice in Hooden boxes, 100 pounds of salmon to a box. Many of these fish were shipped rail express to various places in Canada and the United States. At Leonard's, salmon vere uD.pac'{ed and cleaned by several men. The observer looked at the salmon as tpey were being unpac'{ed, and again after they had been cleaned. 0ach salmon \las then placed on a !Jan and frozen. It l·ras tten glazed by i11lBersion in warn uater, and placed in a plastic ba3.

  • Surficial Sediments and Post-Glacial Relative Sea-Level History, Hamilton Sound, Newfoundland
    An.ANTIC GEOLOGY 97 Surficial sediments and post-glacial relative sea-level history, Hamilton Sound, Newfoundland J. Shaw and K.A. Edwardson Geological Survey of Canada, Atlantic Geoscience Centre, Bedford Institute of Oceanography, PO. Box 1006, Dartmouth, Nova Scotia B2Y 4A2, Canada Date Received September 28, 1993 Date Accepted April 4, 1994 Hamilton Sound is a shallow, wave-exposed cmbaymcnt on the northeast coast of Newfoundland. Four scismostratigraphic units are recognised: (1) bedrock (acoustic basement); (2) a unit with incoherent reflections, interpreted as Late Wisconsinan glacial diamicton or till, which in places forms small drumlins; (3) a thin, acoustically stratified, draped unit found in the deepest parts of the eastern sound, interpreted as glacimarinc gravelly mud; and (4) an uppermost unit with an acoustically stratified, ponded facies, and a facies which can be acoustically incoherent. Unit 4 consists of sandy mud, muddy sand, sand and gravel, and results from reworking of units 2 and 3. Three types of seabed occur: (1) bedrock; (2) bouldery gravel or gravel, sub-angular to rounded, which overlies, and is derived from, glacial diamicton of acoustic unit 2. The coralline alga Lithothamnion sp. coats some clasts on their upper surfaces and some clasts completely. This, together with the occurrence of gravel ripples in several areas, is evidence of intermittent sediment mobility; and (3) gravelly sand, sand, muddy sand, or sandy mud, located in basins. Seabed features in this zone include dunes, iceberg furrows and pits. The regional relative sca­ level curve is constrained by two types of morphological evidence: rounded drumlin crests at depths below 19 m which would have been truncated if sea level had fallen below -18.5 m, and (wave-cut) terraces at depths of 17 to 21 m.
