Ti: A compilation of laws regulating the use of the coastal environment.

So: In: Research report IMA/9/83; 1983.

Ab: A study of the environmental laws of Trinidad and Tobago raises the question - "What is environmental law?" The starting point in answering this question is the word 'environment.' For the purpose of this study, environment may be defined as all of the surrounding conditions and influences that affect the development of things living and non-living. Environmental law as a judicial corpus is in its infancy in Trinidad and Tobago; indeed in many countries of the world. The recent attention that is being paid to this branch of the law is a direct result of the deterioration of the human and natural environment on a global scale. The time is perhaps right therefore, to examine those laws which have the capacity to control the manner in which we use our resources and the activities associated with this exploitation. This study is an attempt to arrange those laws which impinge upon our use of the environment into a co-ordinated whole.

So: West Indian Journal of Engineering; 8(2):51-60, 1983.

Ab: This paper describes the results of a survey of aircraft noise associated with the operation of Piarco Airport, Trinidad. Projections of noise annoyance are carried out based upon likely increases in air traffic. It is concluded that, at present, the problem is not a severe one and that in the immediate future the level of annoyance may be kept within acceptable limits by minor restrictions of the take-off and landing paths and by suitable location of future housing.

Ti: Beach tar pollution on Maiden Cay, Jamaica.

Pub: s.l.; s.n.; 1983.

Ab: The location of Maiden Cay (3 Km offshore) in the approaches to Kingston Harbour, and its close proximity to the shipping channel made it an ideal location to monitor beach tar pollution. Approximately 250 ships/month enter Kingston Harbour. Tar on the cay arises from tankers discharging oil into Jamaican coastal waters after leaving port. The levels and rate of arrival of tar on Maiden Cay were investigated. The specific gravity (SG) of beach tar balls was directly related to the sand content (r=0.92). Older tar balls tended to be heavily encrusted with sand and thus sank SG=1.3, and were repeatedly transported in both longitudinal and horizontal directions across the beach. Newly arrived beach tar had a lower specific gravity (SG=0.9), floated and was used to determine the rate of tar arrival. The entire cay was swept clean of tar and debris and sampled by means of wide transects over 12 days. It is estimated that the mean rate of arrival of fresh tar was 1,4 g/m/d.

Ti: Conceptual design and detailing of buildings for wind resistance.

Pub: Kingston; [CERO]; 1983. 19.

Ab: Wind effects are critical in the design of traditional lightweight structures. The advent of lightweight industrialized building systems increases the national risks of wind damage in the Caribbean region. This paper attempts to identify the most important structural considerations for buildings prone to wind damage. It also presents recommended detailing procedures to ensure good building performance in high winds. Among the points dealt with are cladding types and modes of resistance, bracing methods and effects, uplift effects on fixings, stability, connections, columns and foundations. Detailing recommendations are supported by previous studies and research observations which confirm the case for and against various methods of detailing for wind resistance.

Ti: The influence of the land-sea breeze regime on beach erosion and accretion - an example from Jamaica.

So: Caribbean Geography; 1(1):13-23, May 1983.

Ab: Beach erosion and accretion on the Palisadoes, south-east Jamaica, is a diurnal phenomenon, caused by changes in wave form in response to the local sea-land breeze regime. Sea breeze generates destructive wave forms which removes sediments from the foreshore. These waves decay when the land breeze operates, and sediment is returned to the foreshore by constructive wave action. For this meteorological data are a satisfactory substitute for wave data in prediction of short-term beach erosion and accretion.

Students, at the end of the teaching unit, would have developed: (i) an understanding of the difference between natural and man-made disasters; (ii) knowledge of the natural disasters which affect the Caribbean i.e. hurricanes, volcanoes, earthquakes and floods; (iii) an awareness of the effects that natural disasters can have on a country's economy, development and the lifestyles of its people; (iv) scientific and social attitudes; (v) certain skills such as developing accurate powers of observation and learning to report and record information accurately.

Ab: Floods of different recurrence intervals have been estimated for a number of river and canal sections in the Great Morass of Negril and the Lower Morass of the Black River. The purpose was to give hydrological background data for a possible future improvement of the carrying capacity of the rivers and canals. The estimations were carried out on the condition that the river and canal channels do not overflow. The estimates have been based on flood frequency curves for stream flow stations in western and central Jamaica. The method of frequency analysis of partial duration series of floods was used.

Ti: The effects of Hurricane Allen on beach reef populations of Discovery Bay, Jamaica.

So: Journal of Experimental Marine Biology and Ecology; 75(3): 233-43, 1984.

Ab: Sixteen months after Hurricane Allen, an assessment of the condition (living vs. dead and encrusted) and volume of staghorn coral, Acrophora cervicornis Lamarck, patches within the East Back Reef of Discovery Bay, Jamaica was made. Data generated by this assessment were compared with similar data collected in 1975-1976 prior to the storm. Densities of two urchins, Diadema antillarum Philippi and Echinometra viridis A. Agassiz, and the threespot damsel-fish, Eupomacentrus planifrons Cuvier, within the coral patches were also measured. Although staghorn coral patches were significantly smaller (-65) in mean volume in 1981 compared to 1975-1976, 22 percent of the patches were unchanged since 1976 or had increased in volume and only 9 percent were reduced to piles of rubble. Diadema and three-spot densities were significantly higher than in 1976. Mortality of damsel-fish and larger Diadema appeared to have been reduced. Coral patches with both damselfish and Diadema present exhibited a high proportion of living coral tissue, while those dominated by either damselfish or Diadema were overgrazed with 5 percent of the substrata covered by living coral. Similarly, the fore reef exhibited high urchin and low damselfish densities, possibly contributing to its low proportion of living coral.
