Fundy Basin Fundy Basin The Fundy Basin is a sediment-filled rift basin on the Atlantic coast of southeastern Canada. It contains three sub-basins; the Fundy sub-basin, the Minas Basin and the Chignecto Basin. These arms meet at the Bay of Fundy, which is contained within the rift valley. From the Bay of Fundy, the Minas Basin trends northeast to Nova Scotia. Chignecto Bay runs from the Bay of Fundy northwest between New Brunswick and Nova Scotia which is separated from the waters of the Northumberland Strait by the Isthmus of Chignecto. The Fundy Basin is best known for the bay it contains.
Between the Tides Between the Tides Part of Stanford University’s Spatial History Project, headed by Richard White (historian), Between the Tides is a digital history project that seeks to show how the San Francisco Bay and its shoreline have changed over time by overlaying seemingly disparate data sets.

"Between the Tides"' principal investigator is Matthew Booker, a visiting assistant professor from North Carolina State University whose work focuses on the relationship between humans
