Effects of the Nestucca Oil Spill on Seabirds Along the Coast of Vancouver Island in 1989
Author: Alan E. Burger
Publisher: Delta, B.C. : Canadian Wildlife Service
ISBN:
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 64
Book Description
On 23 December 1988, the oil barge Nestucca was damaged off Gray's Harbour, Washington and began leaking, spilling about 875,000 litres of Bunker C oil that drifted northwards, leading to widespread oiling of beaches along the coasts of Washington and Vancouver Island and the heavy mortality of seabirds. This report documents the impact of the Nestucca spill on seabirds based on the data collected from British Columbia. The report documented the numbers, types, degree of oiling, and state of decomposition of the birds recovered on Vancouver Island; compared the species composition of the oiled birds with that of offshore and inshore populations wintering off southwest Vancouver Island; estimated the total number of oiled birds to land on Vancouver Island, taking into account the large numbers of carcasses not tallied; estimated the total at-sea mortality represented by the birds recovered on Vancouver Island, taking into account the losses of carcasses at sea; compared the Nestucca victims with normal seabird mortality off Vancouver Island; and assessed the impact of the spill on predatory and scavenging birds on Vancouver Island.

The Dory Fleet of Pacific City
Author: Jeanna Rosembalm Bottenberg
Publisher: Arcadia Publishing
ISBN: 9780738558134
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 132
Book Description
With its smooth, sandy beach, the quiet coastal town of Pacific City, on the coast of Oregon's Tillamook County, is the perfect home for a unique group of boats. The Pacific City dory fleet has a proud history spanning more than 100 years. Nestled in the natural shelter provided by Cape Kiwanda, the fleet lives on today as one of the most interesting fishing fleets in the world. The small flat-bottomed boats dare the ocean as they crash through the surf headed for the plentiful waters of the Pacific. At day's end, they ride the waves back to shore and slide onto the beach. The original design of the dory allows it to launch from and land on the shore. Through the inherent dangers of ocean fishing, governmental restriction, international fishing competition, and, most recently, the influx of surfers and civilization, the dedicated fishermen have held on to tradition.
