Description
Summary:Missing pg.64. This thesis is one of a number of studies of the Pleistocene history of the Labrador Peninsula that have been carried out from the McGill Sub-Arctic Research Laboratory since 1955.To date, the study of glacial geomorphology has been the most important single field of research. Indeed, for three years after 1957 the Laboratory provided not only a centrally placed base, but most of the workers in this field in Peninsular Labrador Ungava. The Director at that time organized a programme to elucidate the last deglaciation of the whole peninsula. The original field work, carried out in carefully selected, widely spaced areas has provided a framework for later studies. Members of the Laboratory staff have carried out investigations in a number of discrete regions. [.]
