Rapid Communication A paleolimnological constraint to the extent of the Last Glaciation on northern Devon Island, Canadian High Arctic
Pre-Holocene lacustrine sediments from a small coastal lake on the Truelove Lowland, northeastern Devon Island, Nunavut Territory, Canada, indicate that a viable terrestrial ecosystem existed prior to postglacial marine inundation and subsequent isostatic emergence of the basin. An AMS 14C age of 38...
