  • A. Geology, Soils and Topography Geology and Topography Glacial Deposits Formed the Shape of Cape Cod
    Section IV: Environmental Inventory and Analysis A. Geology, Soils and Topography Geology and Topography Glacial deposits formed the shape of Cape Cod. Approximately 25,000 years ago the Canadian Ice Sheet reached its southernmost point at Martha’s Vineyard and Nantucket. Three lobes of ice covered Cape Cod: the Cape Cod Bay Lobe, the South Channel Lobe, and the Buzzards Bay Lobe. About 15,500 years ago the sheets of ice began retreating, depositing rock debris, known as drift, as they receded. Drift ranges from till, an unstratified mixture of fine to coarse material, to deposits sorted by the flow of water and spread across the landscape. The drift deposited by the ice created the major landscape forms found in Falmouth and the Cape: moraines, outwash plains, kames (knobs), and kettle holes. Moraines are terminal ridges that represent the edge of a glacier. As the glacier retreated, drift was churned up and deposited in a ridge. The Buzzards Bay Moraine runs northeast from the Elizabeth Islands through Woods Hole to Sandwich. Outwash plains slope gradually away Map 4-1: Geologic Map of Cape Cod from the Buzzards Bay Moraine to the sea (Figure 4- 1). They are formed by sand Lake deposits and gravel deposits left by water streaming out of the Younger ice-contact deposits melting glacial lobes. Kames and kettles are known as ice Younger outwash deposits contact features. Kames are knobs of drift deposits left by Moraine deposits debris once embedded in ice. Kettles are holes in the ground Older outwash deposits formed by large ice blocks.

  • Beginner's Guide to Fishing
    Beginner’s Guide to Fishing www.dnr.sc.gov/aquaticed It is my hope that this guide will make your journey into the world of recreational angling (fishin’) uncomplicated, enjoyable and successful. As you begin this journey, I encourage you to keep in mind the words of the 15th century nun Dame Juliana Berner, “Piscator non solum piscatur.” Being a 15th century nun, naturally Dame Juliana tended to write in Latin. This phrase roughly translates to “there is more to fishing than catching fish.” Dame Juliana knows what she’s talking about, as she’s believed to have penned the earliest known volume of sportfishing, the beginners guide of its day, “ A Tretyse of Fysshyne with an Angle.” As you begin to apply the ideas and concepts in our beginners guide, you will start to develop new skills; you will get to exercise your patience; and, most importantly, you will begin to share special experiences with your family and friends. In the early nineties, I can remember sitting in a canoe with my four-year-old daughter on the upper end of Lake Russell fishing for bream with cane poles and crickets. My daughter looked back at me from the front seat of the canoe and said, “Daddy, I sure do hate to kill these crickets, but we got to have bait.” Later, we spent hours together in the backyard perfecting her cast and talking about how to place the bait in just the right spot. We took those new skills to the pond. The first good cast, bait placed like a pro, and a “big bass” hit like a freight train.

  • 2019 WATER HEALTH REPORT-Draft
    State of the Waters: Cape Cod 2019 Cape Cod Water Health Report State of the Waters: Cape Cod 2019 Cape Cod Water Health Report Association to Preserve Cape Cod October 1, 2019 Prepared by: Andrew Gottlieb, Jo Ann Muramoto, Ph.D., Jordanne Feldman, Bryan Horsley, Kristin Andres and Don Keeran 1. Introduction The State of the Waters: Cape Cod is an assessment of the Cape’s water quality, designed to help you understand the water quality problems that we face and the actions that are needed to address these problems. The Association to Preserve Cape Cod (APCC) launched this project in 2019 in order to answer the question: “How healthy are Cape Cod’s waters?” This website is the place to find out about the Cape’s water quality and what can be done to address water pollution and achieve clean water. For this multi-year project, APCC collected existing data on water quality on Cape Cod for the purpose of determining the health of Cape Cod’s waters. APCC evaluated water quality in coastal waters (saltwater), freshwater ponds and lakes, and public drinking water supplies. APCC used existing methods to score water quality and used the scores to distinguish between degraded surface waters where immediate action is needed to improve water quality vs. surface waters with acceptable quality where ongoing protection is needed to avoid any decline in quality. The results are summarized in this annual water health report. To guide public action, APCC prepared a Water Action Plan that contains recommendations for changes in policies, actions, and regulations to improve and protect our waters.

  • Kentucky Fish Idbook
    Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources Click here to go to the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Services KENTUCKY FISH Compiled by Benjy T. Kinman Fishery Program Coordinator 1993 Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources Division of Fisheries Pete W. Pfeiffer, Director PREFACE This booklet is intended to serve as a reference to fishes commonly encountered by anglers. In order to identify a fish, based on its written description, the reader may need to refer to the diagrams on the inside back cover for the proper names used to describe a body part. Kentucky has a total of 242 species of fish, which represents one of the most diverse assemblages in North America. Many are obscure minnows and darters, which are not commonly seen by anglers. However, these fish often have specific habitat re- quirements in our streams and lakes, which are subjected to deg- radation by man’s activity. The loss of these fish and habitats often indicates larger problems that may eventually affect the sport fishery. The uniqueness and integrity of this fish assem- blage can only be protected by our collective effort as individuals and as a society. Enjoy your use of Kentucky’s renewable fishery resource! Acknowledgments Thanks are extended to the following Fisheries Division personnel for their review and comments: Pete Pfeiffer, Ted Crowell, Jim Axon, Lew Kornman, Doug Stephens, David Bell, Kerry Prather , Wayne Davis, and Bonny Laflin. Karen Hukill typed the manuscript. The Information and Education Division employees, Elaine Breeck, John Boone, and Larry Holder were responsible for the layout and design.
