Hensall native leaves
for work in Africa
Dr. Robert Mickle, son of
Mrs. Laird Mickle and the late
Ernest Laird Mickle leaves
July 16 for Africa to join the
Canadian Coast Guard ship
Quadra in Dakar, Senegal.
During his six weeks stay he
will be taking part in the GARP
Atlantic Tropical Experiment
generally referred to as GATE.
Garp stands for Gobal Atmosph-
eric Research Program, which
is a joint venture of the World
Meterorlogical Organization and
the International Council of
Scientific Unions. The Quadra
sailed from Victoria B.C. in
mid May reaching Dakar, Africa
about mid June going by way
of the Panama Canal. She has
a crew of about one hundred
and this will be increased by
more than 30 scientists and
technicians from across Canada.
The Quadra will be playing a
key role as she is stated to be
the best instrumental ship in
the whole fleet because of her
radar equipment, probably the
most powerful rain -detecting
radar in the world, capable of
scanning an area of 150 miles
in radius.
This $100 million expedition
marks the largest international
scientific effort in history.
More than 70 countries are
involved along with 4, 000
people, nearly 40 ships and
more than a dozen aircraft
and satellites.
Canada is one of the 11 nat-
ions taking part in GATE which
began in mid June and continues
until late September. Other
participating countries are
Britain, United States, the
Soviet Union, West Germany,
France, Brazil, East Germany,
Mexico, the Netherlands and
Portugal. The Quadra stationed
600 miles south west of Dakar
will be one of the 36 research
vessels positioned at prearr-
anged stations extending 2400
miles across the Atlantic from
Barbados to West Africa.
The information to be tabul-
ated during the next three years
is expected to help provide two -
to -three week weather forecasts
far more accurate than any-
thing known today, and it has
been predicted to have a conse-
quent saving of billions of
dollars every year.
Dr. Mickle is one of the
Canadian scientists participat-
ing from the Atmospheric
Environment Services in Tor-
onto.
