Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Hydrodynamics of Canadian Atlantic Waters I have before me a chart of the area in question, with numerous soundings, pre senting a detailed survey of the bathymetrical conditions. In order to obtain some idea as to the dimensions of this marine basin, I draw out on the chart a system of parallel lines, at intervals of 100 km., each line being again divided up into lengths of 100 km., (fig. At the points thus marked off, I draw short lines indicating the depth, these latter being perpendicular to the original system of parallels. By inserting the inter mediate depths according to the chart, vertical sections are obtained for every 100 km. Throughout the entire area. (fig.

This book was released on 2016-06-26 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Temperatures and Densities of the Waters of Eastern Canada: Including the Atlantic From the Bay of Fundy to Newfoundland; The Gulf of St. Lawrence, and the Straits Connecting It With the Ocean General Summary - These Observations of the density and temperature were taken with the primary Object of tracing the movement Of the water, as this method had proved so serviceable in the Gulf of St. Lawrence. The density of the water was taken at the surface only. The variation did not prove sufficient, however, to be relied upon as an indication Of direction of movement. The temperature was taken to a depth of thirty fathoms; and more was expected from the temperature than from the density, as it was hoped it would serve to trace the course of the Labrador current. The depth of thirty fathoms was found sufficient, as the water was there at the freezing point throughout the region examined, both south and east Of Newfoundland, during the whole season from May to September. All the change which took place during the progress of the season or from other causes, was between the surface and thirty fathoms. The change Of the temperature Of the water also afforded an inter esting valuation for the amount of wind disturbance, and the depth to which it extended, under given conditions. The general results, although, they are Of little value for the purpose of tracing the movement of the water by its temperature may be summarized as follows The temperature of the water at 30 fathoms is practically at the freezing point in all parts Of this region, from the mouth of Placentia bay to St. Johns. It varied only from to 34 Fahr., and there was no change from one month to another, from May to September. (2) The water of the Labrador current warms up quite as much on the surface as the surface water elsewhere in this region. The general increase of the surface temperature along the south shore, from St. Pierre to Trepassey, Was from in May to 50 in September; and the surface temperature of the Labrador current rose from an average of at the end of May to at the middle Of August. Whether this increase Of the surface temperature takes place during the progress of the current southward, or whether this warmer surface water ows over it from elsewhere, We have not sufficiently extended Observations to determine. But for the guidance of the mariner, it is evident that lower temperature cannot be depended on, as an indication Of the current-belt itself.

Download or read book The Fluid Envelope of our Planet written by Eric L. Mills and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2011-04-23 with total page 449 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Oceans have had a mysterious allure for centuries, inspiring fears, myths, and poetic imaginations. By the early twentieth century, however, scientists began to see oceans as physical phenomena that could be understood through mathematical geophysics. The Fluid Envelope of Our Planet explores the scientific developments from the early middle ages to the twentieth century that illuminated the once murky depths of oceanography. Tracing the transition from descriptive to mathematical analyses of the oceans, Eric Mills examines sailors' and explorers' observations of the oceans, the influence of Scandinavian techniques on German-speaking geographers, and the eventual development of shared quantitative practices and ideas. A detailed and beautifully written account of the history of oceanography, The Fluid Envelope of Our Planet is also an engaging account of the emergence of a scientific discipline.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Water-Works of Canada The object of the present report is to present in a form readily available for reference, the principal physical data respecting the water-works systems now in existence in the Dominion of Canada. Pains have been taken to make the information herein tabulated as accurate as possible. The method employed in collecting it may be described briefly. The first step was to send out the following circular letter to all cities, towns and villages in the Dominion: "The Commission of Conservation is collecting information respecting water supply in Canada and is desirous of enlisting your aid in the work. Will you kindly send a description of the water supply of your town or city, including therein full information along the lines suggested by the questions below? Your thorough familiarity with your plant will doubtless enable you to furnish us with many interesting details that cannot be covered by a set of arbitrary questions such as is here appended. (1) Name of city or town (2) Population (3) Is plant privately or municipally owned? If the former, kindly state name of company (4) Source of supply - whether taken from lake, river or springs Give distance of source of supply from centre of distribution (5) Method of supply - whether by gravity or direct pressure If pumping is used, state (a) Maximum and average h.p. used (b) Kind of power (steam, electric, etc.) (c) If pumped to reservoir, stand-pipe, tank or directly into mains (6) Cost of supply plant (7) Cost of distribution system (8) Name and official capacity of officer in charge About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A B C of Hydrodynamics Fifty years elapsed, and then Lord Kelvin said, practically, the same thing: Thus it is that gravity, which could not affect the motion of a liquid entirely filling a rigid closed vessel, will exercise a most important influence on the motion Ofa liquid contained in an open vessel, and exposing a free surface to the atmospheric pressure. Some parts of the book are necessarily contentious. L have, however, when I disagree with the ordinary modern teaching, only quoted from authors of position and authority to explain my objections. The quotations are, perhaps, rather full, but I do not think it is fair to take a sentence out of a paragraph and remove it from the context.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from All Afloat: A Chronicle of Craft and Waterways Canada is the child of the sea. Her infancy was cradled by her waterways; and the life blood oi her youth was drawn from oceans, lakes, and rivers. No other land of equal area has ever been so intimately bound up with the changing fortunes of all its different waters, coast and inland, salt and fresh. The St Lawrence basin by itself is a thing to marvel at, for its mere stupendous size alone. Its mouth and estuary are both so vast that their salt waters far exceed those of all other river systems put together. Its tide runs farther in from the Atlantic than any other tide from this or any other ocean. And its Great Lakes are appropriately known by their proud name because they contain more fresh water than all the world beside. Size for size, this one river system is so pre-eminently first in the sum of these three attributes that there is no competing second to be found elsewhere.
