    The Minnesota Seaside Station near Port Renfrew, British Columbia: A Photo Essay Erik A. Moore and Rebecca Toov* n 1898, University of Minnesota botanist Josephine Tilden, her sixty-year-old mother, and a field guide landed their canoe on Vancouver Island at the mouth of the Strait of Juan de Fuca. This Iconcluded one journey – involving three thousand kilometres of travel westward from Minneapolis – and began another that filled a decade of Tilden’s life and that continues to echo in the present. Inspired by the unique flora and fauna of her landing place, Tilden secured a deed for four acres (1.6 hectares) along the coast at what came to be known as Botanical Beach in order to serve as the Minnesota Seaside Station (Figure 1). Born in Davenport, Iowa, and raised in Minneapolis, Minnesota, Josephine Tilden attended the University of Minnesota and completed her undergraduate degree in botany in 1895. She continued her graduate studies there, in the field of phycological botany, and was soon ap- pointed to a faculty position (the first woman to hold such a post in the sciences) and became professor of botany in 1910. With the support of her department chair Conway MacMillan and others, Tilden’s research laboratory became the site of the Minnesota Seaside Station, a place for conducting morphological and physiological work upon the plants and animals of the west coast of North America. It was inaugurated in 1901, when some thirty people, including Tilden, MacMillan, departmental colleagues, and a researcher from Tokyo, spent the summer there.1 * Special thanks to this issue’s guest editors, Alan D.

Bobrowsky#, Ian Hutchinson$ !Depatment of Earth Sciences and Institute for Quaternary Research, Simon Fraser University, Burnaby, BC, Canada V5A 1S6 "Geological Survey of Canada, 101 - 605 Robson St., Vancouver, BC, Canada V6B 5J3 #Geological Survey Branch, P.O. Box 9320, Stn Prov Govt, Victoria, BC, Canada V8W 9N3 $Department of Geography and Institute for Quaternary Research, Simon Fraser University, Burnaby, Canada BC V5A 1S6 Abstract Large tsunamis strike the British Columbia coast an average of once every several hundred years. Some of the tsunamis, including one from Alaska in 1964, are the result of distant great earthquakes. Most, however, are triggered by earthquakes at the Cascadia subduction zone, which extends along the Paci"c coast from Vancouver Island to northern California. Evidence of these tsunamis has been found in tidal marshes and low-elevation coastal lakes on western Vancouver Island. The tsunamis deposited sheets of sand and gravel now preserved in sequences of peat and mud. These sheets commonly contain marine fossils, and they thin and "ne landward, consistent with deposition by landward surges of water. They occur in low-energy settings where other possible depositional processes, such as stream #ooding and storm surges, can be ruled out. The most recent large tsunami generated by an earthquake at the Cascadia subduction zone has been dated in Washington and Japan to AD 1700. The spatial distribution of the deposits of the 1700 tsunami, together with theoretical numerical modelling, indicate wave run-ups of up to 5 m asl along the outer coast of Vancouver Island and up to 15}20 m asl at the heads of some inlets.

TD227.B7K46 2004 333.91’04’0971128 C2004-960175-X Executive summary This project focussed on the delineation and classification of developed aquifers within the Capital Regional District of British Columbia (CRD). The goal was to identify and map water-bearing unconsolidated and bedrock aquifers in the region, and to classify the mapped aquifers according to the methodology outlined in the B.C. Aquifer Classification System (Kreye and Wei, 1994). The project began in summer 2003 with the mapping and classification of aquifers in Sooke, and on the Saanich Peninsula. Aquifers in the remaining portion of the CRD including Victoria, Oak Bay, Esquimalt, View Royal, District of Highlands, the Western Communities, Metchosin and Port Renfrew were mapped and classified in summer 2004. The presence of unconsolidated deposits within the CRD is attributed to glacial activity within the region over the last 20,000 years. Glacial and glaciofluvial modification of the landscape has resulted in the presence of significant water bearing deposits, formed from the sands and gravels of Capilano Sediments, Quadra and Cowichan Head Formations.
