This unique venue will establish Nanaimo as one of the top ten ‘must see – must visit’ cities in North America. Despite a multitude of ocean science and aquarium theme parks around the world, an often overlooked connection with our ocean environment remains. The simple reason is these venues are aged in not only construction, but in their technological and single dimensional approach to ocean discovery and cultural heritage. The ambiance of these parks are dated, stagnant in their ability to appeal to today’s learning minds, young or old. Unlike anything else in the world, the Ocean Discovery Centre will be a dynamic complex combining; OUR VISION ! Canada’s first Deep Water Technology Marine Display, ! A unique Coastal First Nation Marine Centre, and “An inspiring ! An interactive Marine Ecology Centre. collection of The story of ocean discovery and the greater history of interactive displays, underwater exploration is a terrific tale to be told in this robotics, location. The early and contemporary First Nation Marine Culture, which is an integral part of Nanaimo and submersibles and Vancouver Island, will be fused into the architecture and moving theatre exhibits in the complex, ensuring the rich traditions of Canadian indigenous people are preserved. A experiences contemporary, community based educational display showcasing the featuring regional marine life from the Salish Sea will celebrate the unique aspects of Nanaimo and its history, the present, waterfront in an exciting, accessible, and interactive and revealing the way. future of ocean The facilities will be contained in a 3,200 square meter ecology & building, designed for sustainability and within a local west coast vernacular. As a community asset and sustainable education facility, the architecture, building systems and technologies.” exhibitions would all contribute to the greater story of Nanaimo and the surrounding waters. 4 | Page The Deep Sea Underwater Marine Display, First Nation’s Marine Culture Centre and interactive marine ecology display will be an exciting tourist attraction and education facility boosting the Nanaimo economy, adding vitality to the heart of the community and the Nanaimo Waterfront. This marine/ocean experience will attract local, regional and global visitors to an exciting range of displays and activities, some static, some “virtual”, and some “interactive”. It will reflect on the history, engage with the present, and look to the future. The health, social, economic and environmental benefits of a facility such as the Ocean Discovery Centre are well documented through evidence-based research1. The benefits reach all facets of life, from economic development to environmental sustainability. Recreation, arts, culture and outdoor/open space are essential to personal health. The Ocean Discovery Centre will help build a strong, safe and inclusive community in a part of Nanaimo that for decades has been rendered industrial. It will contribute to the economic development of the waterfront, Islands Trust, the downtown business core and the city itself whilst simultaneously promoting environmental sustainability and providing invaluable educational opportunities. Connected to the rest of the city using interpretive trails, a diversity of access points, recreation facilities, programs and community cultural and educational events the Centre will

By way of catching up, we have produced a Summer double issue and have the good fortune to be able to publish with a color cover. Coinciding with the Santa Barbara relocation is the appointment, by the Board of Directors, of the first members of the HDS USA Advisory Board. This distinguished group of senior diving professionals, with extensive backgrounds in diving medicine, technical development, commercial, military and sports diving, bring in excess of 300 years of diving experience to the Society. Most of their biographies are the size of town phone directories, and have had to be severely edited for publication. We are honored and gratefulfortheir willing offers of service, and hope that we have done their biographies justice. Details start on page 4. The recently introduced, Founding Benefactor class of membership has proven to be very popular with over half of the thirty available memberships already taken. An opportunity still exists to acquire one of these unique memberships and details of it's benefits are noted on page 9. On the international front, the ongoing formation of the HDS USA as a nonprofit corporation has, by law, changed the conditions that govern our relationship with the HDS in UK.

  • Water Systems on Earth Water Systems on Earth
    Water Systems on Earth Water Systems on Earth OVERVIEW In this unit, students continue their study of Earth and Space Science by examining water systems and discovering the important roles of water on Earth. Students investigate salt water and fresh water, places where water is found on Earth, and different organisms that live in water. Students learn how the different physical states of water fit into the water cycle and contribute to our weather and climate. Finally, students create models to show how different geological features result from water processes and how oil spills can be cleaned up. Approximately 25 to 30 hours are needed to complete this unit. For a detailed curriculum correlation, refer to page xxxiii in the Overview section of this resource. PRESCRIBED LEARNING OUTCOMES PLO1: explain the significance of salinity and temperature in the world’s oceans PLO2: describe how water and ice shape the landscape PLO3: explain variations in productivity and species distribution in marine environments Chapter 7: The Water Cycle PLO1 PLO2 PLO3 Key Idea 1: The water on Earth is not ✓ distributed equally. Key Idea 2: All the water in, on, and around ✓ Earth circulates through the water cycle. Key Idea 3: Moving water and ice can change ✓ the shape of the land. Key Idea 4: The water cycle is affected by ✓ many factors. Key Idea 5: Water systems are managed to protect them from the impacts of human activities. 488 Unit C: Water Systems on Earth NEL Chapter 8: Water Features PLO1 PLO2 PLO3 Key Idea 1: The shape of Earth’s surface ✓ determines how water flows over it.

Colgary, Jr. Submitted to the Department of Mechanical Engineering on May 6, 2016, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degrees of Naval Engineer's Degree and Master of Science in Mechanical Engineering Abstract The Atmospheric Diving Suit (ADS) is a one-man submarine with moveable, human- like appendages with internal pressure maintained at one atmosphere. This precludes the possibility of common diving related illnesses while giving the operator an in- creased depth of operation compared to traditional diving systems. The ADS provides additional capability for industries and militaries around the world, but is not without its own unique challenges and limitations.

    News for the CaNadiaN Chapter This snake ingested two things? Any guesses? See page 18. Vol. 4 No. 1 Summer 2012 The Explorers Club – Canadian Chapter 1 www.explorersclub.ca Message from the Chapter Chair John Pollack FI’06 With the factional war on the NY Board now settled, a lot of Chapter Chairs and members are breathing sighs of relief. For better or worse we have a reconfigured International Board of Directors and a new President - Alan Nichols - and we wish them well. Their first job will be to re-establish professional and democratic governance that supports the goals of the Club while respecting the many different views of the membership. All of us need to give them a bit of time in that regard, and recognize the large demands of TEC, including the organization of two major annual events and the ongoing maintenance and repair of the Headquarters Building. In Canada we are fortunate to have a strong Chapter with a number of outstanding upcoming events. An annual field trip is being held at Crowsnest Pass this June, and the West Coast Symposium is scheduled for the Gulf Islands in September. Details of both are contained in this issue of Far Afield, and the Toronto monthly lectures / dinners, and Victoria student events, continue on a regular basis. All of these sessions are possible because of the work of a dedicated group of volunteers, many of whom are Directors of the Canadian Chapter. And in the background, our membership still ventures out onto the oceans and into the mountains , and we do what we love - explore.
