Lauren has always considered herself lucky. Her entire adult life she’s been privileged too be the recipient of many professional advancements. As she contemplates her next move she finds herself reevaluating her life. So it didn’t seem strange to her when her boyfriend Thaddeus announced that she’d be accompanying him on a grant funded expedition to a remote Canadian base in the Arctic. Sebastian, a French Canadian, has lead expeditions from the Arctic Canadian outpost for nearly 10 years. He is a consummate professional and the most sought out in his field. Plagued by a painful family memory; Sebastian has shunned his home province of Quebec and has chosen the seclusion of the remote station. Everyone seemed perfectly suited for their jobs but no one could have imagined how the expedition would ultimately change the course of their lives. .

From the author: Twenty-nine verified records of white sharks, Carcharodon carcharias, from British Columbia and Alaska waters (1961-2004) are presented. Record locations ranged from lat. 48[degrees]48'N to lat. 60[degrees]17'N, including the northernmost occurrence of a white shark and the first report of this species from the central Bering Sea. White sharks recorded from the study area were generally large, with 95% falling between 3.8 and 5.4 m in length. Mature white sharks of both sexes occur in British Columbia and Alaska waters, although they do not necessarily reproduce there. White sharks actively feed in the study area; their diet is similar to that reported for this species from Washington and northern California waters. Sea surface temperature (SST) concurrent with white shark records from the study area ranged from 16[degrees]C to between 6.4[degrees]C and 5.0[degrees]C, extending the lower extreme of the range of SST from which this species has been previously reported. White shark strandings are rarely reported, yet 16 (55%) of the records hi this study are of beached animals; strandings generally occurred later in the year and at lower latitudes than non-strandings. No significant correlation was found between white shark records in the study area and El Nino events and no records occurred during La Nina events. The dam presented here indicate that white sharks are more abundant hi the cold waters of British Columbia and Alaska than previous records suggest.
