The routes of precontact inland trails are no longer known well due to the decimation of the local population in the 18th and 19th centuries. Industrial logging is threatening to destroy archaeological evidence of the inland trail network, and therefore this inquiry is timely. The largest and most topographically diverse island, Graham, has been the subject of many archaeological impact assessments that have documented hundreds of archaeological sites, most of them containing culturally modified trees.

Community Involvement in the Nomination and Management of SGang Gwaay World Heritage Site Jennifer Iredale and Ursula Pfahler Heritage Branch Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations Province of British Columbia Edited by Clare Thorbes GLOSSARY In keeping with the wishes of the Haida community, this case study uses Haida place names that are in current use, and the spellings follow the most recent orthography established by the Haida Language Committee. The English names for certain places are listed in this glossary and occasionally mentioned elsewhere in the case study to orient readers more familiar with those names. Many of our interviewees use their Haida name, either exclusively or in addition to their English name, and we have endeavoured to use the order and spelling of names that our interviewees prefer. People’s names are listed once in the glossary and are not cross-referenced. In the case of individuals who use their English names predominantly, the given name precedes the surname. Places and Organizations Archipelago Management Board (AMB) – established in 1993 under one of the provisions of the Gwaii Haanas Agreement between the Council of the Haida Nation and the federal government of Canada.

Inaturalist How-To Guide
Official charitable partner of BC Parks Your Step-by-Step Guide to Becoming a BC Parks Citizen Scientist bcparksfoundation.ca/inaturalist 1 #iNatBCParks Calling All Citizen Scientists The BC Parks iNaturalist Project is bringing together citizen scientists – British Columbians, visitors and anyone who enjoys B.C.’s provincial parks and protected areas – to document biodiversity in B.C.’s parks using iNaturalist. By using this powerful, trusted mobile app and website to document observations of plants, animals and other organisms, British Columbians and park visitors can contribute to the understanding of life found in B.C.’s parks and protected areas. The BC Parks iNaturalist Project is a collaboration between: What is ? iNaturalist is a mobile phone app and website used around the world to crowdsource observations of plants, animals and other organisms. Users upload photos of observations and iNaturalist’s image recognition software suggests the identity of the organism. A community of keen citizen scientists called “identifiers” then confirm the 2 identity of documented species, helping correct any errors and verify observations to make them research grade. Why is citizen science important? Your observations through the BC Parks iNaturalist Project create an interactive record of your own explorations in B.C.’s parks and protected areas, while helping improve the understanding of the species that live in or travel through our province. You may come across rare species, species at risk and species that aren’t well-studied. Your observations may help track population and distribution changes over time as a result of factors such as climate change. It’s free.
