TAKING ITS TEMPERATURE—Dave White and Al Pickering take the temperature of a
spring as part of an aerial thermography study being conducted by the Maitland Valley
Conservation Authority. Dave uses a conventional thermometer on the end of a string
while Al checks it with a remote sensing gadget called a radiometer.

authority noted that comparative .
surveys of the springs from year
to year can reveal changes in the
level of the water table possibly
resulting from changes in land
use and can guide the authority in
its land management programs.
He also pointed out that by
knowing the location of major
springs the authority can work
with the landowners to protect
them from damage.
Mr. Pickering reported the
thermographic maps indicate
there are up to 250 springs in the
Dickey's Creek drainage area
and by last week he and Mr.
garden White had checked and con-
firmed about 75 percent of them.
In addition to confirming the
ent presence of a spring they check
the temperature of the water for
the MVCA records.
The MVCA is using this study
as a pilot project, Mr. said, and
hopes to bring the plane back for
