Testing a Proposed Late Holocene Sea Level Oscillation using the Isolation Basin Approach, Great Northern Peninsula, Newfoundland

THIS STUDY TESTS Grant’s hypothesis (1994) that northwestern Newfoundland ex-perienced a 9-10-metre sea level oscillation during the late Holocene, against previ-ous reconstructions that propose continuous postglacial emergence. This study also comprises part of a larger regional project that is rec...
