The researchers will obtain sediments from lakes near Cape Dyer to document past climatic conditions. Vegetation and lake water chemistry data will also be collected in order to collect information about the current environment: this data can be compared to historic data. Finally, the inner Frobisher Bay area will be surveyed for data about past sea levels and glacial landforms. This research w...

The Research team will study climate using information from permanent weather stations. They will continue to set up and monitor automatic weater stations. Local environments of the interior of Baffin Island will be investigated to see how the climate and vegetation have responded during times of great change in the earth's climate, such as the end of the last ice age and the warmer period that fo...
