Principal Investigator: Clark, Peter
Licensed Year(s): 1980
Summary: To undertake a study of the glacial geology of the region. Field work will consists of mapping indicators of glacial ice movement (e.g. scarring, erratics, raised marine deposits) and sample collection for age dating....

Principal Investigator: Naldrett, Dana
Licensed Year(s): 1979
Summary: To study the nature and distribution of tidal flats to determine their form, origin and composition and types of living organisms present. The effects of ice movements before, during and after break-up will also be observed. The purpose of the study is to determine the sensitivity of the coastal regions to possible oil pollution....
