Check, E. L. Ray to Crook and Shelton, July 29, 1925
No full textThis Kosciusko Bank check, dated July 29, 1925, is written to Crook and Shelton for forty-two dollars and forty-five cents from E. L. Ray, administrator of the Mrs. E. R. Monk Estate. A blue stamp on the top center of the check states that it was cashed at Planters Bank and Trust on July 31, 1925 and a purple stamp on the right end of the check marks it as having been paid on August 3, 1925. Three stamps on the back track where the check went through the system. Crook and Shelton\u27s signature is also on the back.https://scholarsjunction.msstate.edu/mss-webb-collection/2534/thumbnail.jp

Ribbons of blue
No full textRibbons of Blue is a water quality awareness program that involves schools and community groups in monitering local water bodies.
The concept originated in the Environmental Policy Planning section of the Office of Premier and Cabinet, in 1989. Martin Revell and Thelma cook outline the scope of the program and highlight some major achievements

Blue carbon sequestration potential in Zostera marina eelgrass beds of the K'omoks Estuary, British Columbia
No full textGreenhouse gases, as a significant cause of global climate change, are the highest in history. Coastal ecosystems are said to contribute to climate change mitigation by sequestering significant amounts of blue carbon. Disconcertingly, seagrasses are experiencing global extent loss. Using dated sediment cores, the potential for carbon sequestration was assessed in Zostera marina eelgrass bed sediments of the K’ómoks Estuary. Some of the assessed areas are found to be non-depositional. In areas of deposition the sediment accumulation rate is 0.23 to 0.78 g cm-2 yr-1, and the carbon concentration range in buried sediment is 0.06 to 0.22%. Carbon accumulation rates are 0 to 1.3x10-3 gC cm-2 yr-1, lower than in nearby Strait of Georgia. The K’ómoks Estuary is a disturbed site. The calculated area weighted average carbon sequestration rate for the K’ómoks Estuary is 1.18x 10-5 tC m-2 yr-1. At this rate, the author suggests these northwest Pacific Ocean eelgrass beds do not sequester carbon at the global rates anticipated by previous work. Protection of all estuarine ecosystems will also provide important ecological benefits
