Mercer 63 1 3 DAILY 3EA WATER OBSERVATIUNS Since 1934, daily observations of the temperature and salinity of the sea water have been made at a number of exposed and sheltered loca- tions along the British Columbia coast. The data from the station. in exposed positions are required to pro- vide a record of the surface ocealioLicipnic conditions which may be used: (1)As a general reference. (2)As a means of determining the duration of typical conditions in coastal waters, which have been examined by ocean current surveys. (3)For comparison, and where possib' , correla- tion to meteorological condition.,, and to the fishery. The data from stations in sheltered positions are required to: (1) Measure local phenomena of interest for some, particular purpose. (Effect of temperature on shellfish; annual cycle of density in a harbour). The majority of the stations are located at a lighthouse, and the services of the lightkeepers have been arranped in co-operation with the Department of Transport. Other stations are opera'ed by persons al- ready in the service of the Fisheries Research boara, or by arrange- ments with a local resident. The observation point at each station was chosen with care, to minimize the effects of local fresh water drainage on the temperature and salinity. The system of investigation may be briefly outlined as follows: Cases of 3 oz. sample bottles are sent to each observing station, where the observer takes a daily sea water sample at a depth of three feet, using a simple apparatus designed to obtain a sample and record the temperature simultan- eously. The observer records the date and temperature on the sample bottle and makes an entry in a log sheet. The observation is made on the latter half of the rising.. tide (within one hour of high water; occurring during the daytime. When a case of bottles is filled kaidout three months) it is returned to the Pacific Biological Station where the salinities of the samples are determined by chemical analyses. These dat'are presented in tabular form, for each day on which observations were made. 4 In addition to presenting the monthly mean values of temperlture and salinity, a collective monthly mean value is also calulated. After the tenth year of observation is complete, a ten year moving monthly mean value is calculated. The data from stations in the Georgia strait and sheltered posi- tions may be regarded as applying to the areas represented by the positions of the stations. For instance, Entrance is.and data is repres- entative of surface waters in Georgia strait north of this point, as far as Savary island. Cape Mudge data is indicative of the conditions at the entrance to the northern passages; Departure bay data is represent- ative of harbours having two entrances, etc. The data from stations on the ocean coast is representative of surface ocean conditions, from about November first to June first. During this time southeasterly winds prevail, and sea water temperatures are higher than air temperatures. However, during the summer from about June first to November first, westerly winds prevail and the sea water temperatures are less than air temperatures. During this time coastal water is colder than to seaward. Due allowances must be made in estimat- ing off-shore ocean conditions from these data. 5 Seawater Records from Amphitrite, Barkley sound January, 1953 February, 1953 March, 1953 Day Water Water Water Salinity of Temp.

  • Victoria and Southern Vancouver Island
    Gonzales Hill (Peter Grant) Gonzales Hill 6 Victoria and Southern Vancouver Island Southern Vancouver Island includes Victoria, Sooke (35 kilometres south- west) and the Saanich Peninsula (35 km north). The Strait of Juan de Fuca is at its feet, and the Sooke Hills and Highlands form the backdrop. It’s an area with a remarkable spectrum of climatic conditions — from Sooke’s wet coast feel to Sidney’s rain-shadow heat trap. The traditional home of Salish First Nations, Victoria was where the English colonial project started in 1843. It grew from a little trading depot to include three cities, two towns and eight municipal districts. Victoria has been a seat of govern- ment since 1849 and the capital of British Columbia since 1868. Esquimalt has had a naval base since the 1850s. A host of outstanding cultural and heritage sites are based on these twin heritages. The economic wealth reflected in the area’s fine homes, gardens and restaurants is matched by the riches of its parks and natural areas — within hailing distance of the 375,000 people who call it home. Songhees Point 1 The austere simplicity of ancient rock gives Songhees Point, on the west side of Victoria’s Inner Harbour, an elemental character. It is a fitting place 7 to contemplate the history of Victoria’s First Nations. A bronze sculpture represents a spindle whorl, an icon of the Coast Salish people and an important piece of traditional Salish wool-spinning technology. The casting is the work of local First Nations artist Butch Dick. It’s one of seven Signs of Lekwungen installed around Victoria to mark sites of sig- nificance to First Peoples.

Sec. 1. (1) The legislature finds that the northern 4 coast of the Olympic Peninsula and Washington's west coast from Cape 5 Flattery south to Cape Disappointment: 6 (a) Possess uniquely rich and highly vulnerable biological, marine, 7 and cultural resources supporting some of the nation's most valuable 8 commercial, sport, and tribal fisheries; 9 (b) Sustain endangered species and numerous species of vulnerable 10 marine mammals; and 11 (c) Are internationally recognized through extraordinary 12 designations including a world heritage site, a national park, a 13 national marine sanctuary, national wildlife refuges, a maritime area 14 off-limits to shipping, and tribal lands and fishing areas of federally 15 recognized coastal Indian tribes. 16 (2) The legislature further finds that these coasts are 17 periodically beset by severe storms with dangerously high seas and by 18 strong currents, obscuring fog, and other conditions that imperil 19 vessels and crews. When vessels suffer damage or founder, the coasts 20 are likewise imperiled, particularly if oil is spilled into coastal 21 waters. Oil spills pose great potential risks to treasured resources. 22 (3) The legislature further finds that Washington has maintained an 23 emergency response tug at Neah Bay since 1999 to protect state waters 24 from maritime casualties and resulting oil spills. The tug is 25 necessary because of the peculiarities of local waters that call for 26 special precautionary measures.

  • Newfoundland Royal Commission 1933 Report (London: His Majesty's Stationary Office, 1934) 45
    Amulree Report Amulree Report Project Title Page The Royal Warrant Introduction Table of Contents Chapter I In June 2002, Robert Hong, BA (Hons., MUN), MA (History, MUN), approached the Chapter II Newfoundland and Labrador Heritage Web Site with an offer to provide us with a digitized Chapter III version of the Amulree Commission Report. Earlier in the year he had entered the entire Chapter IV document into a word processor with the intention of making it available to the public in an Chapter V electronic format. Once we were satisfied with the accuracy of the electronic version, we were delighted and thankful to accept Robert Hong's offer. Chapter VI Chapter VII In most cases, what appears in the following pages is the text and layout as we received it. Chapter VIII There is one notable exception. A series of 65 black and white photographs are incorporated Chapter IX into the web site version. These photographs were part of the final report, but were presented Chapter X in their own album. Chapter XI Chapter XII Appendices Maps Photo Album Cover. Album cover of photographs furnished to the Newfoundland Royal Commission, August 1933. Courtesy of the Centre for Newfoundland Studies Archives (Coll-207), Memorial University of Newfoundland Library, St. John's, Newfoundland. (35 kb) They have been embedded into appropriate locations on the web site to provide a visual representation, whenever possible, of places mentioned in the 1933 report. The images mainly depict the architecture and landscape of Newfoundland outport communities, several of which have since been resettled. There are a number of images of northern Labrador showing the rugged terrain along the coast.
