Objective(s): To relate changes in the stability, morphology and position of the coastline to environmental forcing factors, as influenced by changing climate;
Project Description: The researcher and his team will investigate the range of potential impacts of changing global climate on the coastline of the Canadian Beaufort Sea. This will be done by a combination of monitoring and site investigations to ascertain processes and process rates affecting coastal responses to present day environmental forcing.
