Abstract<br />

THOMSON, R.E., 1984. <strong>Océanographie</strong> <strong>de</strong> <strong>la</strong> <strong>côte</strong> <strong>de</strong> <strong>la</strong> <strong>Colombie</strong>-<strong>Britannique</strong>, Pub!.<br />

spéc. can. sci. halieut. aquat., 56 : 317p.<br />

This book <strong>de</strong>als with the physical aspects of the sea as exemplified by the<br />

Pacific Ocean and the contiguous waters of the British Columbia coast. Although<br />

principally <strong>de</strong>voted to waves, currents, and ti<strong>de</strong>s, the book spans a broad spectrum<br />

of topics ranging from m<strong>et</strong>eorology and marine biology to past and present marine<br />

geology. It attempts to elucidate the nature of oceanic motions and to re<strong>la</strong>te them to<br />

everyday experience for the general interest of the casual rea<strong>de</strong>r and for the practical<br />

benefit of the professional mariner, scientist, or engineer.<br />
