Objectif(s): To examine the paleoenvironmental record preserved in the sediments and soils of the Truelove Lowland and adjacent areas of the northeastern coast of Devon Island with the object of reconstructing the environmental changes that have taken place in these Polar Oases during the last 40,000 years.
Description du projet: The Researcher and his team will study the age, chemistry and fossil organisms preserved in the lake sediments of the Truelove Lowland and similar coastal lowlands. The information will be used to reconstruct the environmental changes that have taken place in these Polar Oases during the last 40,000 years.
