Map of dark matter sheds new light on forces shaping the universe
Researchers used the Atacama Cosmology Telescope to create this new map of the dark matter. The orange regions show where there is more mass; purple where there is less or none. The typical features are hundreds of millions of light years across. The whitish band shows where contaminating light from dust in our Milky Way galaxy, measured by the Planck satellite, obscures a deeper view. The new map uses light from the cosmic microwave background (CMB) essentially as a backlight to silhouette all the matter between us and the Big Bang. “It’s a bit like silhouetting, but instead of just having black in the silhouette, you have texture and lumps of dark matter, as if the light were streaming through a fabric curtain that had lots of knots and bumps in it,” said Suzanne Staggs, director of ACT and Princeton's Henry DeWolf Smyth Professor of Physics. “The famous blue and yellow CMB image is a snapshot of what the universe was like in a single epoch, about 13 billion years ago, and now this is giving us the information about all the epochs since.”

Volcanologists look to Mount Garibaldi for greater understanding of volcanic activity
A snow-covered Mount Garibaldi looms over a couple of geese in the Squamish Estuary on Saturday, April 19, 2008, the day it was designated the Skwelwil'em Squamish Estuary Wildlife Management Area by the BC Ministry of Environment. Story details: The Squamish estuary is located at the head of Howe Sound within the District of Squamish. About 673 hectares in size, it includes extensive marsh, mudflat, and inter-tidal drainage channels formed where the Squamish and Stawamus rivers meet the sea. The recommendations of the Squamish Estuary Management Plan (SEMP) facilitated a land exchange agreement that had been under negotiation since 1996 by the B.C. government, the Squamish Nation, BCR Properties and BC Rail. As part of that agreement, the Province acquired a tract of estuary land that was to be designated as a wildlife management area (WMA) and managed for conservation in conjunction with an adjacent parcel owned by the Squamish Nation. A WMA is a designation under the Wildlife Act, is not a protected area designation, and is made to allow for the management of significant wildlife resources. Management of wildlife, fish and their habitats is the priority land use, but other uses may be permitted. The Squamish Estuary WMA is within the traditional territory of the Squamish Nation. Management strategies are developed in co-operation with First Nations and stakeholders and will not interfere with Aboriginal rights or Aboriginal title.
