Objective(s): to map, describe and explain the unconsolidated deposits, landforms, permafrost and organic cover; to study patterns of glacial dispersal and drift geochemistry; to collect small samples of surficial materials for sedimentological, geochemical and paleoecological analysis
Project Description: Dr. Lemmen and his assistant will collect soil samples. Their findings will be helpful in setting Land Use Regulations, in mineral explorations and engineering construction. The field geology work will also provide historical data for the area.
