Objectif(s): To collect data for PhD thesis; to investigate the nature of the Late Quaternary stratigraphic record of marine and glaciomarine deposits exposed by rivers along the mainland coast of the NWT; to define ice-front positions during ice retreat; to describe the succession of depositional environments during deglaciation; to evaluate the extent of isostatic uplift.
