RoxAnn survey of Lake Ontario nearshore sediments at MTRCA's East-Point development site, Scarborough, Ontario / N.A. Rukavina.: En13-5/97-213E-PDF

"Environment Canada conducted a sediment-mapping survey of the Scarborough nearshore zone for the Metro Toronto Conservation Authority in November 1997. The area surveyed in detail extended from the mouth of Highland Creek to Port Union Road; a more limited survey was run between Port Union Road and the Rouge River. The purpose of the surveys was to determine the general distribution of bottom-sediment types as a planning aid for redevelopment of the East Point shoreline. This report describes the field equipment and procedures used and discusses the results obtained by acoustic and video mapping of bottom types and bathymetry with a RoxAnn seabed-classification system and an underwater-television system"--Introduction, page 2.
