The Value of Estuaries

Estuaries are not only one of the most biologically productive types of ecosystem, they are also one of the most valuable. It is difficult to attach monetary worth to these ecosystem services, especially since most are needed for life on earth and are not replaceable with human-made systems, at any cost.

Trent River Estuary

The K’ómoks IBA is an amalgamation of the former Comox Valley IBA, Baynes Sound IBA and Lambert Channel/Hornby Island Waters IBA. These three IBAs share common populations of waterbirds but were established as separate IBAs because they were nominated independently.

Macdonald Wood Park

The Macdonald Wood Park Society  was formed in 1994 when this natural area was threatened by a potential development. This valuable habitat contains one of the last intact midden on the coast and is a sensitive ecosystem encompassing a scarce salt marsh.

Ancient Fish Traps

A large scale, technologically sophisticated intertidal fishery in Courtenay, British Columbia. The information on this page comes from Comox Valley Archaeologists Nancy Greene and David McGee. While it is not a Project Watershed project, we proudly support this body of work.
