Glacial geology and Quaternary marine stratigraphy of the Robeson Channel area, northeastern Ellesmere Island, Northwest Territories

Glacial and marine deposits associated with 2 phases of glaciation are exposed along a 60km corridor on Ellesmere Island that borders Robeson Channel. The Holocene and pre-Holocene glacial and marine chronologies in the Robeson Channel area are similar to chronologies demonstrated from other locatio...
