During the summers of 1947, 1948, and 1949, extensive investigations were carried out near Churchill on muskeg or "organic terrain" as it may more appropriately be called. The work has been divided into two parts, serial and gorund investigations. Au cours des étés de 1947, de 1948 et de 1949, des investigations poussées ont été réalisées, près de Churchill (Manitoba), sur le muskeg ou les sols organiques, comme on appelle parfois ce type de formation. Les travaux ont été subdivisés en deux (2) parties, soit les investigations sérielles et les investigations pédologiques. Peer reviewed: No NRC publication: Yes
