Discussion of “Glacier velocities and dynamic discharge from the ice masses of Baffin Island and Bylot Island, Nunavut, Canada”
A similar investigation into calving glaciers and iceberg production on Baffin and Bylot islands was initiated by the Canadian Government in the 1970s. This is described and reference made to the Glacier Atlas of Canada, which, in identifying all individual glaciers in this region of the Canadian Ar...

| Summary: | A similar investigation into calving glaciers and iceberg production on Baffin and Bylot islands was initiated by the Canadian Government in the 1970s. This is described and reference made to the Glacier Atlas of Canada, which, in identifying all individual glaciers in this region of the Canadian Arctic, obviates the need to develop an independent numbering system when individual glaciers need to be identified. |
