Book The Marine Geology of the Inner Scotian Shelf Off the South Shore  Nova Scotia

Download or read book The Marine Geology of the Inner Scotian Shelf Off the South Shore Nova Scotia written by D. J. W. Piper and published by Geological Survey of Canada. This book was released on 1986 with total page 65 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The innermost 10 km of the South Shore coast is described, showing that bothbedrock and surficial geology are a continuation of that seen on land. Theoffshore geomorphology is essentially an extension of the Maritime peneplane,which has been modified to produce overdeepened basins, particularly ingranites. The bedrock surface is cut by sinuous, discontinuous, and anostomosing chaneels up to 60 m deep. A comprehensive account of late Wisconsinan and early Holocene stratigraphy and sedimentation in this coastaland inner shelf environment has been presented based on seismic profiles and the detailed study of sediments and fauna in 20 piston cores.

Book Updated Surficial Geology Compilation of the Scotian Shelf Bioregion  Offshore Nova Scotia and New Brunswick  Canada

Download or read book Updated Surficial Geology Compilation of the Scotian Shelf Bioregion Offshore Nova Scotia and New Brunswick Canada written by G. Philibert and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This report presents the surficial geology of the Scotian Shelf Bioregion (SSB). The Scotian Shelf surficial geology had been interpreted in the past over the shallower portions of the bioregion as well as on the slope. Since these early maps were produced, more recent and higher resolution hydroacoustic data have been acquired. Therefore, the main objective of the present study is to update the existing surficial geology over the entire SSB, both shelf and slope, using new available maps and data sets. This report constitutes a review of all existing publically available data sets and associated studies that provide information on surficial geology within the bioregion and describes how previous maps and recent data were amalgamated to produced a new updated version of the surficial geology within the SSB"--Introduction, page 4.

This book was released on 2005 with total page 5 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This report provides the descriptions of benthic habitats and fauna observed at different stations on the Scotian Shelf and in the Bay of Fundy. The photographs and video records from 1969 till 2003 available in Geological Survey of Canada (Atlantic) archives were analyzed as a part of the work carried within Geoscience for Ocean Management project X32 "Geoscience for Eastern Scotian Shelf Integrated Management" and other projects on benthic habitat mapping carried by Natural Resources Canada since 1998. The information in this report is presented in the form of data sheets. One sheet per sampling event is provided, with a description of sampling location, date and time, cruise number, sampling tool, water depth, type of the camera and number of photos taken. Each data sheet also shows a location map, detailed bathymetry map, and a representative photograph of the seabed. Habitat descriptions are supplied along with a general notes on the observed fauna"--p. 1.

Download or read book Miscellaneous Invertebrates written by Andreas Schmidt-Rhaesa and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2018-12-03 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume of the Handbook of Zoology summarizes "small" groups of animals across the animal kingdom. Dicyemida and Orthonectida are enigmatic parasites, formerly united as "Mesozoa" and their position among the multicellular animals is still not known with certainty. Placozoa are small, flat marine animals which provide important information on metazoan evolution. Comb jellies (Ctenophora) are esthetically fascinating animals which cause considerable discussion about their phylogenetic position. Seisonida are closely related to rotifers and acanthocephalans. Cycliophora were discovered and described as one of the last higher taxa and surprise by their complex life cycle. Kamptozoa (= Entoprocta) are small sessile animals in the sea and sometimes also in freshwater. Arrow worms (Chaetognatha) play an important role as predators in the plankton, but they also include benthic forms. Pterobranchia and acorn worms (Enteropneusta) belong to the deuterostomia and are related to echinoderms. In particular enteropneusts play an important role in understanding deuterostome evolution. These chapters provide up to date reviews of these exiting groups with reference to the important literature and therefore serves as an important source of information.
