Oceanography in British Columbia in 1936

Abstract

As in previous years, the work in oceanography in British Columbia during 1936 was largely centered in the activities of the Biological Board of Canada at the two main stations, Nanaimo and Prince Rupert, and at the several subsidiary field‐stations, but several Government departments and various organizations gave valuable cooperation. Those making the greater contributions were: The Provincial Fisheries Department; the Provincial Game Commission; the University of British Columbia; the University of Washington (mainly through the Oceanographic Laboratories); the Canadian Pacific Steamship service; the Naval Service; the Department of Health; the Department of Marine; the Hydrographic Service; the Meteorological Service; the Federal Department of Fisheries; and the National Research Council. Assistance from several individuals not connected with any of these organizations helped materially to add to the results obtained from the year's activities.
