Description
Summary:Funding: Funding for this research was provided by a small grant from the Marine Alliance for Science and Technology for Scotland (MASTS) and the Scottish Alliance for Geoscience, Environment and Society (SAGES) “PECRE exchanges with Europe, North America, China, and India”. The Leverhulme Trust Research Project Grant 2014-093 “Calving Glaciers: Long Term Validation and Evidence” funded field research activities and KMS at the University of Glasgow. JV was funded by the Natural Environment Research Council Centre for Doctoral Training in Oil & Gas, received through Herriot-Watt University (James Watt Scholarship Scheme) and the British Geological Survey (British University Funding Initiative Scheme). JV would also like to acknowledge further support from Oil and Gas UK. AM was funded by the Environmental Protection Agency STAR Fellowship. Acknowledgments: We would like to thank the GINR and the Nuuk Fire department for their assistance with laboratory and field logistics in Nuuk. We are also grateful to captain Mackenzie Haberman for her help in the field, and Drs Josephine Nymand, Martin Blicher, Thomas Juul-Pedersen for discussion of research topic and their help with site location and species identification during this research.
