Manson Introduction This work continues the previous seismic hazards bibliography (Manson, 1988). Like that work, this includes all citations pertinent to the study of earthquake hazards in western Washington and the metropolitan Portland, Oregon, area that were received by the Washing­ ton Division of Geology and Earth Resources Library from September 1988 through Septem­ ber 1991. Studies that could shed light on the causes and(or) effects of earthquakes in western Wash­ ington and adjacent areas have been included. Thus, the bibliography emphasizes the seis­ mology, paleoseismology, geophysics, and earthquake-related hazards of the targeted geo­ graphic areas and includes studies of structural geology and tectonics, glacial geology, geochronology, slope stability, soil mechanics, and other pertinent subjects. The previous work concentrated on the Puget-Willamette trough and adjacent areas: the Cascade Range, the Olympic Peninsula, and the Vancouver, B.C., area. The geographic scope of this work has been expanded to include the entire Cascadia subduction zone-from Cape Mendocino, California, to northern Vancouver Island, B.C. Each citation is given in full in the Bibliography. Citations are listed alphabetically by author; joint-author cross references are interfiled. In the Subject Index, items are given alphabetically by subject and geographic area, with appropriate subdivisions. To conserve space, only the author(s), date, and title of citations are given in the subject index, enough information to find the full citation(s) in the Bibliog­ raphy. Duplicate citations (items with the same author(s) and title issued more than once, for example, as both a thesis and an abstract) are listed only once under the appropriate Subject Headings and marked with an asterisk (*). The inclusion of non-Washington State materials complicates the index. Items about Wash­ ington are entered directly (e.g., LANDSLIDES AND SLOPE STABILITY). Items about non-Washington areas are prefaced by the state or province name (e.g., OREGON - LAND­ SLIDES AND SLOPE STABILITY).

  • Squamish Estuary
    OCEAN WATCH | Howe Sound Edition SPECIES AND HABITATS Squamish Estuary AUTHOR Edith B. Tobe, Registered Professional What is happening in Biologist, Squamish River Watershed Society REVIEWER the Squamish Estuary? Gary Williams, M.Sc., R.P.Bio, Professional Wetland Scientist, GL Williams and Associates Ltd. The Squamish Estuary is situated at the head of Howe Sound, one of the southernmost fjords in British Columbia, where the Squamish River drains over 3,650 square kilometers of coastal rainforest into the ocean. An estuary is formed when fresh water mixes with marine waters to create a brackish tidally influenced zone. Estuaries are one of the most productive ecosystems on the planet, providing habitat for fisheries, waterfowl, and wildlife. There have been many anthropomorphic impacts to the Squamish Estuary since it was settled first by First Nations and later by Europeans and other cultures. The impacts have included urbanization, diking and logging and resulted in loss of habitat, changes to hydrology, and introduction of con- tamination. Figure 1. The brownfield site, a former log sort in the central Estuary, is the location of current restoration efforts.

  • Community Risk Assessment
    COMMUNITY RISK ASSESSMENT Squamish-Lillooet Regional District Abstract This Community Risk Assessment is a component of the SLRD Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan. A Community Risk Assessment is the foundation for any local authority emergency management program. It informs risk reduction strategies, emergency response and recovery plans, and other elements of the SLRD emergency program. Evaluating risks is a requirement mandated by the Local Authority Emergency Management Regulation. Section 2(1) of this regulation requires local authorities to prepare emergency plans that reflects their assessment of the relative risk of occurrence, and the potential impact, of emergencies or disasters on people and property. SLRD Emergency Program [email protected] Version: 1.0 Published: January, 2021 SLRD Community Risk Assessment SLRD Emergency Management Program Executive Summary This Community Risk Assessment (CRA) is a component of the Squamish-Lillooet Regional District (SLRD) Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan and presents a survey and analysis of known hazards, risks and related community vulnerabilities in the SLRD. The purpose of a CRA is to: • Consider all known hazards that may trigger a risk event and impact communities of the SLRD; • Identify what would trigger a risk event to occur; and • Determine what the potential impact would be if the risk event did occur. The results of the CRA inform risk reduction strategies, emergency response and recovery plans, and other elements of the SLRD emergency program. Evaluating risks is a requirement mandated by the Local Authority Emergency Management Regulation. Section 2(1) of this regulation requires local authorities to prepare emergency plans that reflect their assessment of the relative risk of occurrence, and the potential impact, of emergencies or disasters on people and property.

  • Squamish/ Mamquam River Survey
    DISTRICT OF SQUAMISH REPORT TO: Council FOR: Regular Meeting of Council PRESENTED: September 18, 2007 FILE: COMDEV SUBJECT: Award of Squamish and Mamquam River Studies Recommendation: THAT Council award the Research and Survey components of the Squamish & Mamquam River Studies to Kerr Wood Leidal and Associates at a price not to exceed $64,872 plus GST; AND FURTHER THAT Council implore the Province to recognize the urgent need for the remainder of the work to be completed, the historical role of the Province in performing this work and request funding for the remainder of the study from Province. CAO Recommendation: THAT the report from Community Development be approved. K. Anema, CAO 1. Purpose: This report is intended to authorize the award the Squamish and Mamquam River Studies. 2. Time Critical: Flood hazard protection is one of Council’s highest priorities. This assignment is intended to undertake the river surveys that are needed to assess the current level of protection afforded by the existing dykes and then determine what, if any, measures are needed to achieve the 200 year standard of protection. 3. Background: The flood of record for the Squamish River occurred in October of 2003. The subsequent analysis of that flood suggested that the existing dykes on the Squamish and Mamquam Rivers may not be providing protection from the provincially accepted, 200 year design storm. Of further concern is aggradation or sediment build-up of the river bed. This may have the effect of further reducing the level of protection afforded by the dykes. In order to determine the current level of protection and thereby establish what, if any, upgrading is necessary a survey of the floodplain must first be undertaken.

Abstract Impact cratering is an abrupt, spectacular process that occurs on any world with a solid surface. On Earth, these craters are easily eroded or destroyed through endogenic processes. The Moon and Mercury, however, lack a significant atmosphere, meaning craters on these worlds remain intact longer, geologically. In this thesis, remote-sensing techniques were used to investigate impact melt emplacement about Mercury’s fresh, complex craters. For complex lunar craters, impact melt is preferentially ejected from the lowest rim elevation, implying topographic control. On Venus, impact melt is preferentially ejected downrange from the impact site, implying impactor-direction control. Mercury, despite its heavily-cratered surface, trends more like Venus than like the Moon.

The coho and Squamish River Watershed Society and the local community are working closely Chinook to provide future working plans for conservation of these important floodplain salmon lands. habitat. 2005 The Mamquam River is an important coho, pink, chum and Chinook salmon producing tributary within the Squamish River watershed. The Squamish River estuary, lying at the head of Howe Sound, was formed at the confluences of the Mamquam and Squamish Rivers and historically supported a large complex wetland with interconnected tidally influenced sloughs and channels. These diverse habitats provided exceptional quality habitat for many salmonid species particularly coho, pink, chum and Chinook salmon. Dyking in the early twentieth century confined the Mamquam River and Squamish Rivers to relatively narrow corridors isolated from most of their historic floodplain The building lands. Internal drainages remain in some of the undeveloped portions of these of dykes on isolated floodplain areas but suffer from reduced flows and poor connections to the viable salmon populations in adjacent habitats. One such drainage is Loggers Lane Mamquam & Creek. Loggers Lane Creek was originally a river channel of the Mamquam River Squamish but was isolated following a giant storm in 1921 after which the dyke was built.
