Optimizing environment and materials handling for beef production in the Atlantic provinces / by J.E. Turnbull.: A58-4/242E-PDF

"The Atlantic provinces winter climate poses some special conditions and problems for the beef producers. Selected charts from the National Building Code, 1970 Supplement No. 1 (ref. 1) are shown in figures 1, 2 and 3. Figure 1 shows design temperatures are somewhat warmer than other beef areas of Canada (except southern Ontario).

Total annual precipitation is high for the entire region, with a range 37 to 57 inches per year (Figure 3)"--Introduction, page [1].
