  • Bald Eagles Wintering in the Southern Gulf Islands, British Columbia
    BALD EAGLES WINTERING IN THE SOUTHERN GULF ISLANDS, BRITISH COLUMBIA DAVID HANCOCK HIS study represents the first attempt to census regularly the wintering T Bald Eagles Haliaeetus Zeucocephdus in the southern Gulf Islands, Brit- ish Columbia. Data were also collected on the feeding and hunting habits of the wintering eagles. In 1961 the National Audubon Society initiated its 5-year Continental Bald Eagle Study. This North American survey was prompted largely by the alarming decrease in numbers of the eastern Bald Eagle in recent years. The studies of Broley (1947)) Howell (1962)) and others have amply pointed out the plight of this great bird in the eastern United States. More recently Southern (1963) conducted a survey of the Bald Eagles winter- ing along the Mississippi River in northwestern Illinois. No similar studies have been conducted on the west coast prior to the Continental Bald Eagle project, or to my study. Murie (1940 and 1959) described the food habits of the eagles of the Aleutian Islands, and Dixon (1909) gives a brief history of the Alaskan birds. Brooks (1922) and Munro (1938) p resented a few of their observations on the feeding and hunting habits of Bald Eagles in British Columbia. Less important notes on individual sightings, nestings, and feeding incidents complete the literature on this species on the west coast. METHOD Fifteen aerial counts, involving 24 hours and 15 minutes of flying time, were conducted over the area (Fig. 1) from 26 September 1962 to IS April 1963. In addition, 130 hours were spent on ground observations. The study area (shown in Fig.

  • Groundwater Recharge Model for Gabriola Island
    Department of Earth Sciences Groundwater Recharge Model for Gabriola Island R. Burgess and D.M. Allen Department of Earth Sciences, Simon Fraser University Final Report Submitted to: Regional District of Nanaimo Cover photo: Glenn Jasechko December 2016 Executive Summary The overall goal of this research project was to constrain estimates of groundwater recharge on the Gulf Islands. Gabriola Island was used as a case study. Better constrained recharge estimates will enable better estimates of the water balance components, which are needed for water supply and demand studies. This report documents the information collected and interpreted to formulate a conceptual hydrogeological model of Gabriola Island, briefly describes the numerical model setup and calibration, and presents the modeling results. Overall, there is likely minimal variability in the climate of Gabriola Island such that precipitation, temperature and PET can all be considered spatially uniform. While there is variability in soil types, vegetation is considered to be relatively uniform (treed over 70% of the island). There are few surface water features, and generally only ephemeral streams form during the rainy season. There is variability in the hydraulic properties of the fractured bedrock on Gabriola Island at a local scale, and with depth. However, on a regional scale the fractured bedrock is relatively homogenous and can be represented as a single hydrogeological unit. A decrease in hydraulic conductivity with depth suggests that below a depth of approximately 200 m, groundwater flow is negligible. A fully integrated land surface – subsurface numerical model was developed for Gabriola Island using state of the art software MIKE SHE. The model was first forced by historical observed climate, and then by projected climate.

Department of School Of Community And Regional Planning The University of British Columbia 2075 Wesbrook Place Vancouver, Canada V6T 1W5 Date: April 1985 i i Abstract This thesis examines various approaches to public participation within rural planning. It deals with the roles rural residents, in unincorporated areas of British Columbia, can play in local planning. The thesis argues that effective planning in such areas only occurs if a rural planning approach, which considers distinctive rural characteristics, is. applied to the planning process. Such planning generally requires the active involvement of rural people. To accomplish this objective a model is constructed of how rural residents participate in planning.
