Book Synopsis Quaternary Geology of Central Melville Island, Northwest Territories by : D. A. Hodgson
Download or read book Quaternary Geology of Central Melville Island, Northwest Territories written by D. A. Hodgson and published by Geological Survey of Canada. This book was released on 1984 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report completes a project designed to study the Quaternarygeology of central Melville Island including Dundas Peninsula. It contains descriptions of surficial materials together with anoutline of the Quaternary history with particular emphasis onlate Quaternary glacial and marine events. Dundas Peninsula isof particular interest since continental ice sheets reached theirmaximum limits in this area on several occasions. A particularlyimportant reason for examining south-central Melville Island isthe projected routing (at the time of writing) of one or morenatural gas transportation systems through it. Nonetheless, thisstudy is not designed to provide geotechnical information for anyone project, but rather to provide information relevant toengineering, land management, or environmental impact studies, aswell as regional Quaternary studies.
Book Synopsis Quaternary Glaciations - Extent and Chronology by : J. Ehlers
Download or read book Quaternary Glaciations - Extent and Chronology written by J. Ehlers and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2004-10-02 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the second of three volumes in which the recent knowledge of the extent and chronology of Quaternary glaciations has been compiled on a global scale. This information is seen as a fundamental requirement, not only for the glacial community, but for the wider user-community of general Quaternary workers. In particular the need for accurate ice-front positions is a basic requirement for the rapidly growing field of palaeoclimate modelling. In order to provide the information for the widest-possible range of users in the most accessible form, a series of digital maps was prepared.The glacial limits were mapped in ArcView, the Geographical Information System (GIS) used by the work group. Included with the publication is a CD with digital maps, showing glacial limits, end moraines, ice-dammed lakes, glacier-induced drainage diversions and the locations of key sections through which the glacial limits are defined and dated. The last deglaciation is also shown in 500 year time-steps. The digital maps in this volume cover the USA and Canada and include Greenland and Hawaii. Both overview maps and more detailed maps at a scale 1: 1,000,000 are provided.Also available:Part I: Europe, ISBN 0-444-51462-7Part III: South America, Asia, Africa, Australia, Antarctica, ISBN 0-444-51593-3

This book was released on 1984 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This report describes the surficial geology of 64,000 km2 of Canada's most northern mainland and complements of a similar report on Somerset Island which lies immediately north of Boothia Peninsula being separated from it by the very narrow waters of Bellot Strait. The report discusses the potential use of geological information to future land use projects and to mineral exploration and presents new interpretations regarding the structure and dynamics of the northern part of the last ice sheet to cover Canada." --

Book Synopsis GLACIAL LANDSYSTEMS by : David J.A. Evans
Download or read book GLACIAL LANDSYSTEMS written by David J.A. Evans and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-02-04 with total page 544 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a comprehensive overview of the ever-captivating field of glaciation from the perspective of glacial landsystems. This approach models the many processes, forms and interactions that can be found in glaciated landscapes throughout the world. Landsystems models allow the glacial geologist and geomorphologist to evaluate these landscapes in relation to the dynamics of glaciation and to climate and geology. Glacial Landsystems brings together the expertise of an international range of specialists to provide an up-to-date summary of landsystems relevant to both modern and ancient glacier systems and also in the reconstruction and interpretation of former glacial environments. The models are applicable at all scales from ice sheets to small valley glaciers. This book is an essential reference for anyone embarking upon research or engineering surveys in glaciated basins and provides a wide-ranging handbook of glacial landsystem types for students of glaciation.

Book Synopsis Canada's Changing North by : William C. Wonders
Download or read book Canada's Changing North written by William C. Wonders and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2003 with total page 471 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Canada's Changing North was first published in 1971, it quickly became a popular and reliable overview of the geography and culture of the Canadian North. In the three decades since it first appeared, great changes have occurred in this huge region that makes up two thirds of Canada's total area. This revised and expanded edition provides a new generation with a comprehensive and up-to-date introduction to the Canadian North and outlines how this region has become increasingly integrated into both the Canadian national fabric and the world. the legal recognition of aboriginal rights by the Canadian state, which has led directly to significant increases in their political and economic power. It also examines how economic development, which has long focused on non-renewable natural resources, particularly minerals, has grown to an enormous scale. Development of arctic oil and gas, which hinges on world supplies and national and international politics, has meant major changes across the North. Some of the new national parks in the Canadian North are already under threat from mineral development. Northern tourism has made it possible for a wide variety of affluent visitors to visit hitherto remote areas, affecting the ecology. The final selection, on northern challenges, discusses critical issues such as the impact of climatic change, the social needs (e.g. housing, education) of a rapidly increasing aboriginal population, environmental protection of unique regions, and defence of Arctic sovereignty. Of the 62 readings in this edition, 41 are new.
