My primary interest these days is extensive research into the Davison Lumber Company,
or more specifically, the legacy of the Davison name in lumbering in Nova Scotia.
Read about it.

My own music video, a tribute to the Canadian Coast Guard Ship Hudson
See it on YouTube

I've had the opportunity to sail on the Hudson several times while conducting oceanographic research. On one stormy trip in 2005,
some words and music came to me. In 2009, a celebration was held for the Hudson and crew (who were the first to circumnavigate
the globe) in an event called Hudson 70 at the Bedford Institute of Oceanography (BIO). I felt compelled to refine my song for the
Hudson and combine it with my own video footage. Sung by a co-worker, it became a music video.

I also maintain a few websites:

www.BIO2012.ca , a site to provide information for the numerous events and Open House in celebration of the
50th Anniversary of BIO

www.bio-oa.ca , a site dedicated to the BIO Oceans Association

www.huntsmanaward.org , The Huntsman Award is given to a scientist recognized for their work in marine geosciences.

www.geohab.org , GeoHab (Marine Geological and Biological Habitat Mapping) was established in 2001 to bring together scientists from around
the world working on the development of new thematic maps linking acoustic mapping and geological sampling to marine biology in a
Geographical Information System environment to underpin sustainable ocean management.
