DeltaCAN: A new data set set of Canadian Arctic and subarctic coastal deltas
Arctic coasts constitute the critical interface between land and sea, and are subject to rapid changes caused by a warming climate. Current trends throughout the Arctic show increasing erosion trends, while other parts of the coast are experiencing prograding trends. Until now, a vast majority of ou...
