Current meter observations from the east coast of Grand Manan Island, Bay of Fundy in 2014 / by B.D. Chang ... [et al.].: Fs97-6/3239E-PDF

"Salmon farming is an important industry along the eastern shore of Grand Manan Island in the southwestern New Brunswick (SWNB) area of the Bay of Fundy. Efforts to operate, manage, and regulate the farms must incorporate knowledge in aspects of the transport and dispersal of disease vectors, parasites, and treatment products in the vicinity of salmon farms, as well as the deposition of organic farm wastes. This knowledge of transport and dispersal is generally based on outputs from water circulation and particle transport and dispersal models. These models require empirical measurements of currents for model calibration and skill assessment. The primary purpose of this report is to summarize current meter data collected in the eastern Grand Manan Island area in 2014. Also included are some current meter data collected in this area in 2000 and 2002"--Introd., p. [1].
