Remarks on the Tides and Driftwood Strand Lines Along the East Coast of James Bay

Abstract

Contains notes and observations on tides and driftwood strand lines made incidentally to other work during a canoe trip (Moosonee to Long Island) in summer 1950, the measurements being taken at irregular intervals and only in the daytime. Reference is made, and eyewitness accounts are quoted regarding the unusually high tide of October 1949, the highest in the memory of the James Bay residents. This is supplemented by observations on the driftwood strand lines of the locality. Bibliography (8 items).
