April 8th

High pressure

Still controls weather

  High in Pacific off California

Some showers but nice spring day

 

 

While a La Nina – similar to 2007 in March

Slightly cooler in 2008 --- blue shading off WCVI

 

Closer look

Note the ‘gyres’ off NW side of QCIs and due North where cooler water being forced to surface and maintained

Note too the patch warmer water off Central Coast –
(see links yesterdays plankton bloom story)  

The 7 degree contour compare with 2007 etc

 

SARA listings for Sea lions, etc – main page

·         Grey Whale (Eschrichtius robustus)

·         Harbour Porpoise (Phocoena phocoena)

·         Killer Whale (Orcinus orca)

·         Steller Sea lion (Eumetopias jubatus)

 

Danger Rocks and Forrester Islan (SE AK) rookeries around North Coast

 

My earlier of McLaren Martindale etc presentation in PR

 

 

Recent PhD Duncan McLaren apparently gave Tsimshian elders overview of his work that traces villages on Dundas Island back from 5T to 10T years BP --- note how clean shaven etc he is now from when gave presentation in PR in 2006 --- and see my attempts to ‘find’ old beaches on Dundas

 

We also see that ex- ICBC boss now heads Naikun Wind Farms --- who said political connections don’t matter for Campbell government?

Naikun was at recent SQCRD meeting n PR
