Objectif(s): To recover sediment cores from high arctic lake basins; to interpret the detailed records from the lake sediments in light of modern processes and climatic conditions that will be observed through the summer melt season.
Description du projet: Mr. Retelle and his research team intend to gather information from sediment cores to reconstruct climatic conditions from the sediment records for the period prior to the existing instrumental records for the high arctic.
