Objective(s): To investigate the spatial and temporal relationships between plant species distribution and beach age on Truelove Lowland, Devon Island. To measure plant composition and spatial variability on different sites on a raised beach and on raised beaches of different ages from the most recent to the oldest and (2) to correlate vegetation parameters with site factors such as soil texture, macro-nutrients, site aspect, etc., which may vary with the age of a raised beach.
