Summary:
This project involves monitoring changes in the coast and refining estimates of land uplift or subsidence using passive geodetic and survey measurements at sites throughout the western Arctic, supported by existing data on coastal submergence and emergence from geological observations. Long-term coastal change under existing climate and sea-level trends will be determined at reference sites of th...

The Coastal Impacts project on the Beaufort Sea coast has two complementary objectives:
1. To improve our understanding of coastal processes;
2. To develop methods for prediction of coastal impacts of changing climate.
Field work will be performed in the modern Mackenzie Delta, along the Tuktoyaktuk Peninsula coast, and at North Head if time permits. Collaborative field work in Ivva...
