Abstract:
Nineteen species of weevils are reported from the Queen Charlotte Islands, British Columbia. Nine species are found throughout the coastal forest region from California north to Alaska or British Columbia. Three species are widespread throughout western North American forests. Four species are found on sand beaches from California north to British Columbia. One species is found in alpine areas from southern British Columbia north to Alaska and the Aleutian and Pribilof islands. Two species are introduced into North America from the Palearctic Region. Three additional species are reported from the islands but their occurrence was not confirmed and they are left as questionable records. Adult individuals of all known species from populations on the Queen Charlotte Islands do not appear structurally differentiated from individuals examined from representative localities elsewhere. Postglacial recolonization of the islands from a southern source area by all native lowland to montane species and from a northern source area by the sole alpine species appears to be the most parsimonious account for the origin of the weevil fauna. There is no evidence to suggest survival of any species in a Late Wisconsinan refugium as has been proposed elsewhere for a number of other animals and plants endemic to the Queen Charlotte Island archipelago.

Abstract:
Sphaeroceridae were collected in the Queen Charlotte Islands, British Columbia, in July 1988, and their distributional patterns were examined to test the hypothesis that the archipelago was the site of a Wisconsinan glacial refugium. A total of 27 species of Sphaeroceridae was identified. Ten of these species show widespread Holarctic distributions, four species are widespread across North America, seven species are restricted to North America west of the Rocky Mountains, three species are restricted to the coastal forest west of the Coast Range, and three species are supralittoral along the coast. There is no indication of endemism or relict distributions on the islands; the sphaerocerid fauna is similar to that found on the adjacent mainland. The most parsimonious explanation for the origin of the present sphaerocerid fauna of the archipelago is postglacial colonization from mainland North America. The sphaerocerid distribution pattern was compared with patterns for other Diptera and Coleoptera from the region. In general, the Sphaeroceridae corroborate the pattern seen in most other insect taxa, with postglacial dispersal from mainland source areas accounting for the present sphaerocerid fauna of the Queen Charlotte Islands.

Abstract:
The abundance and geographic range of woodland caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou) decreased in many areas of British Columbia during the 1900's. Recent studies have found that predation during the summer is the major cause of mortality and current population declines. Increased moose {Alecs alces) populations may be related to past and current caribou declines by sustaining greater numbers of wolves (Canis lupus). Mortality rates were greater in areas where caribou calved in forested habitats, in close proximity to predators and moose. Caribou populations which had calving sites in alpine areas, islands, and rugged mountains experienced lower mortality and were generally stable or increasing. A predator-induced population decline in one area appeared to stabilize at low caribou densities, suggesting that the wolf predation rate may be density dependent.

Abstract:
The Queen Charlotte Islands are located east of the seismically active Queen Charlotte transform fault zone which separates the Pacific and North American plates. The fault zone is the locus of significant seismic activity and is distinguished bathymetrically by two steep scarps bounding a 15 to 25 km wide terrace. To better define regional seismicity characteristics, 16 portable seismographs and 6 ocean bottom seismographs were operated for 9 weeks and 5 days, respectively, during June to August 1983. Three hundred and seventeen events were detected; 130 events that were recorded on 3 or more stations have been located. Twenty' events were identified as possible blasts. Ninety-two of the located earthquakes lie along the Queen Charlotte transform fault zone, most within the 1949, Ms = 8.1, earthquake rupture zone along the inner scarp of the terrace. However, several earthquakes are located on the terrace and a few are aligned with the outer scarp where no activity has previously been observed. Most of the activity is well constrained to be less than 15 km in depth. Two areas of low seismicity were observed along the fault zone. Only two earthquakes occurred in the documented seismic gap bound on the north by the 1949 rupture zone and on the south by the 1970 M = 7.0 earthquake. They were both at -the southern tip of the gap. A similar region of low activity was observed for the fault along Graham Island. No major seismicity (M > 4.0) has been located in this region since the 1949 earthquake. Composite fault plane mechanism solutions were determined for five clusters of events along the fault zone. Events to the northwest of Graham Island are consistent with strike-slip motion along a fault in the direction of the Queen Charlotte transform fault. The four remaining clusters were located along Moresby Island. The mechanisms for these are dominated by thrust faulting with a component of compressional stress trending north-south. These events are interpreted as the result of oblique convergence between the Pacific and North American plate. Significant seismicity was located east of the main Queen Charlotte transform fault zone. Eighteen earthquakes, the largest ML = 3.8, were located in northeastern Graham Island and adjacent Hecate Strait - Dixon Entrance area. None could be associated with known faults. The focal depth of these events is well constrained within the crust so they could not be associated with a subducted plate. A composite fault plane mechanism solution determined for some of these earthquakes indicates a thrusting mechanism with north-south trending compressional stress. One event with a well constrained solution at a shallow focal depth occurred in southeastern Hecate Strait. This event could be associated with crustally pervasive faults identified in Hecate Strait. A magnitude scale based on the coda length of the earthquake signal was determined. Magnitudes were calculated for 265 of the events recorded during the study. For the complete data set a b-value of 0.55 ± 0.05 was determined. This value is significantly lower than values from other studies in the Canadian Cordillera, indicating that a greater percentage of the total number of earthquakes occurs at the higher magnitudes. However, the short period of recording and large magnitude seismic activity (4 earthquakes with ML > 3.8 in 9 weeks) might have biased the estimate toward a low value.

Abstract:
This study compares the morphology of coastal, gravel-bed streams in two unlogged and two logged Queen Charlotte Islands watersheds. This comparison quantifies the influence of logging and related activities on channel morphology and, consequently, the fresh water physical habitat of salmonids. Further, it provides a basis upon which to determine habitat rehabilitation criteria for disturbed channels. Pools and riffles are detailed because: a) they reflect changes in sediment supply; b) they are important fish habitats, and; c) their general character has been documented in previously published literature allowing application of geomorphological results to habitat evaluation. Longitudinal profiles conducted over relatively long channel segments located within each watershed indicate that channels in watersheds logged to the channel banks by old techniques have reduced pool-to-pool spacings and increased riffle amplitudes and magnitudes. There is an increase in channel stored sediment resulting in proportionally larger riffles and smaller pools. This represents a reduction in available rearing habitat. No significant differences exist in pool and riffle characteristics between unlogged watersheds and those logged by contemporary techniques. In all cases the pool and riffle character differed from most previously published results. Results obtained from detailed study reaches located within each channel segment show that large organic debris is a controlling factor influencing the morphology of these streams. Based upon a comparison of reaches, it is concluded that LOD characteristics are altered in the older logged channels. This includes a shift in the size distribution, with smaller material being more prevalent. Orientation of this material is also altered; more LOD is lying parallel to the flow direction, as opposed to the more common diagonal orientation found in unlogged channels. This shift in orientation is responsible for a reduction in channel width and depth variability, reduced sediment texture, fewer cut banks, smaller pool areas and decreased channel stability. This results in reduced habitat diversity and quality. No morphological differences were detected between unlogged and recently logged reaches. The architecture of unlogged channels can be duplicated to rehabilitate disturbed streams. Pool and riffle sequences should be spaced approximately 2½ channel widths apart and riffle magnitudes should average 0.013 m/m. LOD should play a major role in rehabilitation. Long pieces of debris should be placed either diagonally across the channel to increase depth and width variability and to store sediment or parallel to the flow if width is to be reduced. Diversity can be increased by placing large root wads to produce small scour holes. Only small debris steps, accounting for approximately 10% of the overall change in elevation should be used. This comparative study of channel morphology emphasizes the importance of critically evaluating basin morphometric properties and the role of LOD orientation. Further, it indicates that previous studies reporting average values and neglecting LOD provide insufficient detail to quantify fish habitat.

Hunter, Fiona. "A trust as an alternative to a will?" Thesis, University of British Columbia, 1988. http://hdl.handle.net/2429/27766.

Full text
Abstract:
The purpose of this thesis is to study the feasibility of using a trust as an alternative to the will in the jurisdiction of British Columbia. The genesis of the study lies in the liberal interpretation and application of the Wills Variation Act by the courts in this province. Assuming that the free alienation of property upon death is a sound principle, it is incumbent upon the legal community to find methods of avoiding the interference of the judiciary in testamentary matters. To properly assess the trust as an alternative to the will, a brief overview of both is provided. The historical context of the trust is examined, followed by a review of its use in the United States as a wills substitute. The particular trust popular in the United States is one containing a power to revoke by the settlor, a life interest with power to encroach upon capital in favor of the settlor, and powers of modification and control retained by the settlor. It is hereinafter referred to as the revocable trust. Whether the revocable trust would be acceptable to the commonlaw of British Columbia is examined, and the conclusion reached is that there is nothing in theory to prevent its use as an alternative to the will. However, careful drafting must be used at all times to prevent attacks upon the validity of the trust itself. Certain practical considerations in using the revocable trust as an alternative to the will are reviewed, including income tax laws, provincial tax laws, and possible claims by beneficiaries. The more philosophical issue of whether the use of a trust should be permitted to avoid claims by surviving spouses and children is also examined. Conflicting doctrines in the United States are reviewed in light of existing caselaw in British Columbia. The tentative conclusion is that our own courts will permit a settlor to avoid succession claims by employing the trust. Again, however, careful drafting is crucial, and the facts in each case must be reviewed. The study establishes that the revocable trust can be used as an alternative to the will in British Columbia. The popularity of such use may, however, be limited by Canada's income tax laws as well as provincial tax laws. The resistance of the legal community to new ideas may also reduce the possible use of the revocable trust as an alternative to the will.

Abstract:
Radiolarian biostratigraphy is used to construct an informal zonation for sediments of upper Pliensbachian to lower Bajocian age from the Maude and Yakoun Formations, Queen Charlotte Islands, B.C. Paleoenvironmental studies assess depositional environment and the effects of changing facies relationships on the fauna. Seven distinctive assemblages are recognized comprising 167 species of spumellarian and nassellarian Radiolaria. The first well established middle Toarcian radiolarian assemblages are documented and both these and upper Toarcian assemblages are highly diverse and contain many new and unusual forms. Five genera and 89 new species are described many of which have restricted biostratigraphic ranges. A chlorophyte algal cyst appearing in all lowest Bajocian samples may, with further study, prove to be a significant marker for the lower Bajocian in the Queen Charlotte Islands. Although Toarcian Radiolaria have been little studied, the assemblages compare with others from North America, the Mediterranean and Japan, and are distinctly Tethyan in aspect. This is consistent with the position of Wrangellia, which paleomagnetic and ammonite biogeographic evidence indicates was in the northern hemisphere within 30° of the equator during the Early to Middle Jurassic. Studies of the abundance of spumellarians vs. nassellarians indicate thatnassellarians predominate, are abundant and diverse in deeper-water deposits (middle Toarcian and lower Bajocian shales) whereas spume Marians, particularly those with multi-layered or spongy tests, dominate in shallow-water deposits (upper middle Toarcian to Aalenian sandstones). Shallow-water nassellarians are much less diverse but a few species (all multicyrtids with thickened tests) are very abundant. Depth appears to be the major factor controlling radiolarian distribution patterns in this relatively shallow-water setting. Studies of eustatic sea-level changes throughout the Jurassic have indicated that major phases of sea-level rise occurred in the early to mid Toarcian and in the early Bajocian with a major phase of sea-level lowering in the late Toarcian to Aalenian; detailed study of the radiolarian faunal succession in the Queen Charlotte Islands appears to confirm this major worldwide trend.

Full text
Abstract:
Earth Island is a core metaphor of activist thought often applied in Environmental Analysis and related fields as a tool for thinking about the planet’s limited resources. It puts forth the claim that if only we thought of the earth as more like an island, we would better understand our connectivity to other living things and be drawn to develop better and more extensive practices of environmental stewardship. This thesis uses personal accounts of environmental life philosophies and political practices collected from residents of the Discovery Islands in British Columbia as a site for analytical comparison between the theory and practice of "Earth Island." First providing an overview of the history of Earth Island and exploring existing Anthropology and Island Studies scholarship on island community dynamics and environmental perspectives, this thesis examines how the environmental relationships experienced by Discovery Islanders reflect or differ from the type of activist consciousness theoretically proposed by Earth Island. This creates a context for critically reflecting on the limits and applications of the Earth Island metaphor, and suggesting shifts in current approaches to the use of island imagery in environmental political and philosophical thought, promoting a focus on more community cooperation-oriented, less fatalistic themes.

Abstract:
The Queen Charlotte transform fault zone, which lies immediately east of the Queen Charlotte Islands, marks the boundary between the oceanic Pacific and the continental North American plates. Relative plate motions suggest that oblique underthrusting of the Pacific plate beneath North America may be presently occurring along this transform fault. To investigate this plate boundary and the implications of oblique subduction on crustal structure beneath the region, an onshore-offshore seismic refraction survey was conducted in 1983. The survey was designed to sample the crust beneath the Queen Charlotte Islands and across Hecate Strait to the mainland of British Columbia. Six ocean bottom seismographs and 11 land based stations were deployed along a 200 km line extending from 20 km west of the Queen Charlotte Islands to the mainland. Thirteen 540 kg and twenty 60 kg explosive charges were detonated along a 110 km long east-west line in the ocean to the west of the receivers. The multiple shots recorded on multiple receivers, all along the same line, effectively reverses the profile over some of its length. The objective of this study is to provide a model of the deep crustal structure beneath the fault zone, the Queen Charlotte Islands, and Hecate Strait. An exemplary subset of the extensive data set was selected to meet this objective. Beneath the deep ocean the Moho dips at about 2° to the east. At the Queen Charlotte terrace, a 25 km wide zone immediately west of the active Queen Charlotte fault, the dip of the Moho increases to about 5°. The crust is about 12 km thick at the terrace and 18 km thick at the eastern edge of the Queen Charlotte Islands, and in excess of 30 km thick at the mainland. The terrace unit itself is divided into two units - an upper unit with low velocity (4.1 km/s) and high gradient (0.3 km/s/km) and a lower unit with a high velocity (6.5 km/s) and a low gradient (0.05 km/s/km). This model, while not definitive, supports the interpretation of oblique shallow underthrusting of the Pacific plate beneath the Queen Charlotte Islands. The upper terrace unit could represent a sedimentary accretionary wedge and the lower terrace unit - the subducting slab. A model in which compression across the Queen Charlotte transform fault zone is taken up by deformation of the Queen Charlotte Islands in the form of crustal shortening and thickening is not compatible with the thin crust beneath the islands and Hecate Strait.

Abstract:
The Northern Cascade–Fraser River domain conforms to the Northern Cascade Mountains physiographic province in northwestern Washington and southern British Columbia, the San Juan Islands between the southern tip of Vancouver Island and the Northern Cascade Mountains, and much of the Interior Plateau province of British Columbia. The thread that connects these areas is the north–south Straight Creek–Fraser River fault system that runs through the Northern Cascade Mountains and northward along the Fraser River. The localities of domain 7 are along faults that branch off from this major fault system. The Northern Cascade Mountains are indeed mountainous, and the Interior Plateau of British Columbia is an area of dissected plateaus and scattered mountains. The Fraser River flows northwest in the Rocky Mountain Trench, which separates the North American craton on the northeast from accreted terranes on the southwest; then it turns around the northwest end of the Cariboo Mountains to the Interior Plateau. In the Interior Plateau, the Fraser River flows from Prince George south about 500 km to the Northern Cascade Mountains before turning westward toward the Pacific Coast. The northern part of domain 7 is in that part of the Fraser River basin, including tributaries northwest of Prince George, which is in the Interior Plateau province. Low, hilly terrain dominates the San Juan Islands. All of these areas in domain 7, except the Ingalls complex on southeast margin of the Northern Cascade Mountains, were covered by the Cordilleran ice sheet during the last stage of the Pleistocene glaciation, leaving <15 ka years for soil development on the current ground surfaces. Although alpine glaciers formed in the southeastern margin of the Northern Cascade Mountains, they did not cover all of the soils, allowing some of them longer time for development. Elevations in domain 7 range from sea level on San Juan Islands to mostly in the 600–1500 m range on the Interior Plateau of British Columbia, and up to 4392 m on Mt. Rainier in the Northern Cascade Mountains.

Abstract:
The conflict between Britain and the North American colonies, which led to a worldwide war involving Britain’s European enemies, caused dire problems for the British West Indies. North America was an essential source of foodstuffs and other supplies to the islands. To bring pressure on Britain the American colonies cut off supplies to the British islands, much to their detriment. When war broke out in 1778, the French had the ascendancy in the Caribbean, capturing a number of British islands. Edmund Burke and his associates in the Rockingham party were highly critical of both the government policies that led to war with America and of the way in which the war was conducted. They sought to enlist West Indian interests in Britain in their opposition to Lord North. Although most West Indians saw little alternative to putting their trust in the government, Burke played a part in shaping the London Merchants and Planters’ pleas for moderating policy towards America in 1775. In 1781, in two powerful speeches, he took up the cause of those in Britain and the West Indies who were trying to limit the damage the war was inflicting on them by trading through neutral channels. Admiral Rodney’s seizure of the Dutch island of St Eustatius was a very serious blow to British merchants, which Burke denounced as amounting to robbery.

Abstract:
<em>Abstract.</em>—Watersheds in the Pacific Northwest have been the site of conflicts over access to salmon by commercial, aboriginal, and recreational groups, as well as conflicts among salmon users and other users over how to protect or restore salmon habitat, maintain a sustainable harvest rate, and define research priorities. Watershed and salmon users have sometimes chosen to form partnerships to solve common problems, making the conservation or sustainable management of salmon their central objective. Through examining a British Columbia example which illustrates principles of successful collaborative partnerships, as well as some failures to apply these principles, I consider what aspects of the Canadian experience might contain instructive precautionary lessons relevant to the Arctic-Yukon-Kuskokwim area. Five critical key conditions identified from this examination needed for successful partnerships include: (1) clarification of the role of government as a sponsor (funder) but not a convenor of the partnership, (2) a Memorandum of Understanding clearly spelling out the goals, the rights and duties devolved to partnership bodies, and government commitment not to violate them, (3) fishermen involvement in, and oversight of, all aspects of citizen science, including data collection, analysis of data, creation of fishing plans, monitoring and enforcement of adherence to the fishing plans, research, agenda setting, and (5) sufficient time for parties to develop trust in the process and other parties.

Abstract:
The Gulf of Alaska domain extends eastward from Kodiak Island across the Kenai Peninsula, around the Chugach Mountains, and beyond Tonsina, curves southward across the glacier-covered St. Elias Mountains. The southeastern segment of the domain is west of the Canadian Coastal Mountains and includes the coastline and islands in southeastern Alaska. Ultramafic rocks occur sporadically in this region from British Columbia northwestward through southeastern Alaska and around the Gulf of Alaska to the Kenai Peninsula. Most of this domain is mountainous, especially in areas where there are ultramafic rocks. Elevations range from sea level to >5000 m, although ultramafic rocks are not found at the highest elevations. This area was glaciated during the Pleistocene. Many glaciers persist at the higher elevations, and some descend to sea level. The present climate ranges from cold to very cold and from humid to very humid, or perhumid. Mean annual precipitation ranges from 30 or 40 cm on the north side and west end of the Chugach Mountains, to >400 cm along the coast around Prince William Sound and in southeastern Alaska. Southeastern Alaska is a humid-to-perhumid area with dense forests at lower elevations that grade upward into alpine areas. The north side of the Chugach Mountains is drier, but still humid. Precipitation exceeds evapotranspiration in all months of every year. The frost-free period ranges from no more than a few days or weeks at the higher elevations to about 220 days in sheltered areas near sea level in southeasern Alaska. Some of the highest snowfall in North America is in this domain, and ice caps persist in some of the higher mountains with many glaciers flowing into the sea. Serpentine rocks of the Gulf of Alaska domain occur in both ophiolites and in concentric bodies, and some are from the roots of volcanic arcs complexes. West of the Chatham Straight fault, a discontinuous belt of ultramafic bodies extends for >1600 km from Kodiak Island across the Kenai Peninsula, and around the Chugach Range, arching southward as far as Baranof Island (Burns 1985).
