Objective(s): To determine local characteristics of wind and water at a proposed Shell drill site; to observe bird presence during the spring break-up.
Project Description: The purpose of this research is to place automated instruments to measure the wind, temperature, water levels and wave height and frequency at or near a planned drill site for Shell Canada. These instruments will be installed and monitored during our visit to the site and then the instruments will be left to collect data until they are picked up on September 15, 1993. Bird movements and their habitat use will also be monitored during the site visit.
