DAWSON, PRINTER TO THE QUEEN'S MOST EXCELLENT MAJESTY • 1896 LIST OF LIGHTS AND FOG-SIGNALS ON THE COASTS, RIVERS AND LA_K ES OF THE DOMINION OF CANADA UNDER THE CHARGE OF THE DEPARTMENT OF MARINE AND FISHERIES. The Lights in the Bay of Fundy and on the southern and eastern coasts of Nova Scotia, those required for the winter passage of either steamers or ice boats to Prince Edward Island, the Light on the south-west point of St. Paul Island, and all the Lights in British Columbia, are exhibited all the year round. Ail other lights under the control of the Department of Marine and Fisheries are maintained in opera- tion whenever the navigation in the vicinity is open. Lights used sole as harbour lights are not exhibited when the harbour is closed, although the general navigation may remain open. Fishing lights are main- tained only during the fishing season. In any case where there is reasonable doubt whether the light is required it is kept in operation. All the Lightships in the River St. Lawrence below Quebec leave Quebec each spring for their stations as early as ice will permit. The Red Island and White Island Lightships leave their stations for winter quarters on the 15th November annually. All the Gas Buoys in the River St. Lawrence are set out as soon as possible af ter the llth May each spring, and taken up as soon as convenient after the loth November each autumn, when they are replaced by Wooden Can Buoys. All Buoys in the River St. Lawrence below Quebec are removed after the tali November, excepting those replacing the Gas Buoys at each end of the Beaujeu Bank and at the Channel Patch, one at the west end of Middle Bank, and one at St. Roch, East Point, in the Traverse, which are left when possible until the last ocean vessel has passed out.

LightS. F. Fixed. A continuous steady light. In catoptric lights the intensity may vary, depending on the • position of the mariner with reference to the axis of the reflectors. FL. Flashing. Showing single flashes. Ge. FL. Group Flashing. Showing groups of two or more flashes in succession (not necessarily of the same colour) separated by eclipses, followed by a longer eclipse. P. & FL. Fixed and Flashing. Fixed light, varied by single white or coloured flashes, which may be pre- ceded and followed by short eclipses. REV. Revolving. Light gradually increasing to full effect, then decreasing to eclipse. (At short distances and in clear weather a faint continuous light may be observed. As lights of this class are all catoptric they are liable to variations in intensif!, during the continuance of the flash as the position of the reflectors changes.) Ge. REV. Group Revolving. Showing groups of two or more flashes in succession produced by revolving catoptric apparatus, separated by eclipses, followed by a longer eclipse. Mc. Occulting,. A steady light suddenly and totally eclipsed. ALT. Alternating. Red and white light alternately at equal intervals. The time given for a revolving or flash light is from the beginning of one flash to the beginning of the next. ILLUMINATING APPARATUS. C. Catoptric, or by metallic reflectors. D. Dioptric, or by refracting lenses numbered from the first order downwards. Those marked of the 7th order are anchor lenses or anchor lens lanterns of 5 inches focal distance ; those marked "p" are inferior pressed glass lenses, principally of 31. inches focal distance. The Bearings are Magnetic, and are given from seaward. The given distances from which the lights are visible are calculated from a height of fifteen feet above the sea, the elevation of the lights being in all cases taken as above high water. The Geographical Positions of the Lights are Approximate. CAUTION- WITH RESPECT TO LIGHTS The intrinsic power of a Lig,lit should always be considered when expecting to make it in thick weather. A weak Light is easily obscured by haze, and no dependence can be placed on its being seen. Coloured Lights are also inferior in power t,o Bright or White Lights, and are more quickly lost under unfavourable circumstances. CTJTS OR SECTORS. In some conditions of the atmosphere, White Lights may have a reddish hue. The mariner should not trust solely to colour where there are Sectors, but verify the position by taking a bearing of the Light. On either side of the line of demarcation, between white and red, and also between white and green, there is always a small arc of uncertain colour. WITH RESPECT TO FOG-SIGNALS. Having in view the varying distances at which a Fog-signal can be heard at sea, and the frequent occurrence of fog- near to, but not observable from, a Fog-signal Station- Mariners are cautioned that, whilst they are entitled to assume that every endeavour will be made to start Fog-signals as soon as possible after signs of fog have been observed, they should not, when approaching the land in a fog, rely implicitly upon these Fog-signals, but should always use the lead, winch, in nearly all cases, will give sufficient warning. :Mariners are strongly cautioned that they must not judge their distance from a Fog-signal by the power of the sound. Under certain conditions of the atmosphere the sound may be lost at a very short distance from the station, and these conditions inay vary at the saine station within very short intervals of time. The expression " fog-gy weather" means that the state of the atmosphere is such as to make objects indistinct. ERRORS. N.B.—It is particularly requested that any errors or omissions noticed in this work, or any failure in the aids to navigation may be immediately communicated, by letter, to the CHIEF ENGINEER OF MARINE AND FISHERIES, Ottawa, Canada. Such letters may lie mailed post free in Canada. 8 LIGHTS AND FOG-SIGNALS NEW BRUNS BAY OF 4 W. a N. Characteristic No. Name.

We are enchanted by the paintings of Emily Carr and the writings of Lucy Maud Montgomery. We look back in awe at the wisdom of Sir John A. Macdonald and Sir George-Étienne Cartier. We are moved to tears of joy by the humour of Stephen Leacock and tears of gratitude for the courage of Tecumseh. We hold in high regard the determination of Emily Murphy and Rev. Josiah Henson to overcome obstacles which stood in the way of their dreams. We give thanks for the work of the Victorian Order of Nurses and those who organ- ized the Underground Railroad. We think of those who suffered and died at Grosse Île in the dream of reaching a new home.

  • Belcher SAR Thesis
    Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) as a tool for mapping remote geology as applied to the Belcher Islands, Nunavut, Canada by R. Troy Unrau A thesis submitted to the Clayton H. Riddell Faculty of Environment, Earth and Resources in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree of Bachelor of Science, Geological Sciences (B.Sc. G.Sc.) in Geophysics Department of Geological Sciences University of Manitoba Winnipeg, Manitoba © March 2009 Abstract The application of remote sensing techniques to determine, investigate and obtain information about geology is not new; however, most research has focused on using optical imagery. Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) is now being used rather than optical data for a number of reasons: it employs active imaging systems rather than passive ones; it penetrates all weather conditions including rain, snow and cloud-cover; and it can provide additional information on surface textures and rock fabrics when coupled with advanced digital processing techniques. Furthermore, the long wavelength along with interferometric techniques can be used to obtain surface elevations and dynamic information on surface deformation as a function of time. These techniques are known as Interferometric SAR (InSAR) and have recently been the primary focus of SAR research within the geological sciences. The original objective of this thesis is to carry out preliminary visual inspection of SAR data in the previously well-documented study area, the Belcher Islands. In this thesis, SAR is used to qualitatively investigate the boundaries between exposed geologic formations within the Belcher Islands, Nunavut, Canada, utilizing the visual texture and backscattering grey level tone of the processed SAR image data.
