Patterns of glacial erosion and deposition around Cumberland Sound, FrobisherBay and Hudson Strait, and the location of ice streams in the eastern Canadian Arctic in Models in geomorphology.
A distribution map for the dwarf birches is presented for the region from FrobisherBay northward to Cumberland Peninsula. These shrubs are restricted to favourable habitats which, at the northern limit of the species (6740N) are found on south
The Bai-u season was reconstructed with the aid of weather records entered in old diaries between the beginning of the eighteenth century and 1895. The duration of the Bai-u season revealed a strong positive correlation with the end of the Bai-u

struggle waged by Namibians against South African occupation. The paper charts the history of Walvis Bay's colonization and the conflicting claims of sovereignty. The principal focus is he process of bilateral negotiation and changes to the status following
The purpose of this report is to define the sedimentary characteristics of the subsurface lithologic units of the Abu Quir bay and interpret their geological evolution. These information would help in predicting the best site for installing a new
platform at Abu Quir bay. Also it can be useful to search for borrow sand used for beach nourishment.

Three boundary layer models are applied to a wind energy siting investigation in the Saldanha Bay area. The different models were then tested and results compared. Favourable results were obtained for further development of the models. - (AJC)
Afforestation, fire, and vegetation management in the East Bay Hills of the San Francisco Bay area
Devastating fires destroyed much property in 1923 and 1991 in the hills above the bay cities of Oakland and Berkeley (California). In 1991, over 3 300 houses were destroyed, 25 people were killed and 5 000 people rendered homeless. A main reason
