Objective(s): To 1) collect and analyze present-day pollen sedimentation from major plant communities on several high arctic site types, 2) to correlate this production with actual plant cover, and 3) to compare the modern pollen rain to historical pollen deposits analyzed in the Department of Geography, University of Western Ontario (R. King) and during the I.B.P. Project (Jankovska and Bliss).
