Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book contributes to a recently established body of research on faunal studies conducted by the Biological Station in Passamaquoddy Bay. The author's observations record, in a series of essays, the unique but transient presence of less common or non-native species within the Bay at the turn of the 20th century. The author places emphasis on Arctic-derived species which appear in the Bay only rarely, as well as species brought into the Bay from the Gulf Stream and other distant locales. The Arctic species are hardier and better suited to survive in the Bay's environment, while species originating in warmer climates present themselves as evidence of currents reaching the Bay from beyond its normal range. Through these various observations, this book paints a vivid picture of the Bay's diverse but changing ecosystem.
