Project Description : This Canadian Wildlife Service(CWS) Project was undertaken as part of the CWS Latin American Program, initiated in 1980 to support conservation projects shared between Canada and Latin American countries. The South American Shorebird Atlas Project involved a five-year program of aerial surveys undertaken to determine the principle wintering areas used by Nearctic shorebirds on the coast of South America. The surveys, carried out in January/February from 1982 to 1986, covered some 25, 000 km. of the South American coastline, including almost all areas thought to contain significant habitat for shorebirds. More than 2. 9 million Nearctic shorebirds were counted during the surveys, with small, medium-sized and large species making up 80, 16 and four percent of the total, respectively. 1, record 5, English, - South%20American%20Shorebird%20Atlas%20Project

Description du projet : Ce projet du Service canadien de la faune (SCF) a été entrepris dans le cadre du Programme Amérique latine du SCF mis en place en 1980 pour appuyer les projets de conservation menés conjointement par le Canada et les pays d'Amérique latine. Il comprend un programme quinquennal de relevés aériens visant à déterminer les principales aires d'hivernage utilisées par les oiseaux de rivage néarctiques sur les côtes de l'Amérique du Sud. Les relevés, réalisés en janvier et en février, de 1982 à 1986, ont couvert quelque 25 000 km de côte, y compris la presque totalité des zones qui sont censées contenir des habitats importants pour les oiseaux de rivage. Plus de 2,9 millions d'oiseaux de rivage néarctiques ont été dénombrés pendant ces relevés, les espèces de taille petite, moyenne et grande constituant 80, 16 et 4 % du total respectivement. 1, record 5, French, - Projet%20d%27atlas%20des%20oiseaux%20de%20rivage%20de%20l%27Am%C3%A9rique%20du%20Sud

Through the Shellfish Water Quality Protection Program, Environment Canada is responsible for monitoring bacterial water quality in shellfish growing areas. These surveys represent a substantial commitment of effort and resources to ensure the proper evaluation of approximately 25, 000 km of Atlantic coastline. Water surveys are used to determine the classification of coastal waters as to their suitability for the harvesting of molluscan shellfish. The surveys are based on the sanitary and bacteriological water quality conditions in the area. The Shellfish Water Quality Protection Program also promotes pollution prevention, remediation and restoration of shellfish growing areas. 1, record 6, English, - Shellfish%20Water%20Quality%20Protection%20Program

Un niveau substantiel d'efforts est nécessaires pour assurer l'évaluation adéquate des quelques 25 ooo km du littoral atlantique. Des relevés d'analyses bactériologiques permettent de déterminer quelles eaux côtières conviennent le mieux à la récolte de mollusques. Ces relèves se fondent sur la qualité sanitaire et bactériologique de l'eau de la région. Le Programme de salubrité des eaux coquillières favorise aussi la prévention de la pollution et la biorestauration des zones de croissance des mollusques. 1, record 6, French, - Programme%20de%20salubrit%C3%A9%20des%20eaux%20coquilli%C3%A8res

Orbiting Geophysical Observatory(OGO), series of six orbiting observatories launched between 1964 and 1969 by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration(NASA) to study the earth's atmosphere, ionosphere, and magnetosphere and the solar wind. In order to provide global coverage, three of the satellites(OGO-2, OGO-4, and OGO-6) were launched into low polar orbits while the other three(OGO-1, OGO-3, and OGO-5) were placed in eccentric orbits ranging out as far as almost 92, 830 mi(150, 000 km). Each observatory carried 20-25 instruments, including cosmic ray detectors, counters, and telescopes, ionization chambers, Geiger counters, magnetometers, spectrometers, photometers, micrometeoroid detectors, and ion and electron traps. Among the significant achievements of the OGO program were the first observations of daytime auroras and of the protons responsible for the ring of electric current that surrounds the earth during magnetic storms, the collection of data showing the interaction of the solar wind with the earth's magnetosphere, and the verification of the existence of the plasmapause, the inner boundary of the region of trapped radiation in the magnetosphere. 2, record 10, English, - Orbiting%20Geophysical%20Observatory
