Morphodynamics of Cold High Latitude Semiarid Regions: The Example of Ellef Ringnes Island, Nunavut
In this paper we use the example of Ellef Ringnes Island, Nunavut, to examine active geomorphic processes in a high latitude semiarid region. The spectacular landscape of Ellef Ringnes Island is principally the result of fluvial erosion controlled by geological structure. The nival regime concentrat...
