  • Canadian Arctic 1987

    Canadian Arctic 1987

    Canadian Arctic 1987 TED WHALLEY Ellesmere Island has, at Cape Columbia, the northern-most land in the world, at latitude about 83.1°. It is a very mountainous island, particularly on the north­ west and the east sides, and its mountains almost reach the north coast - the northern-most mountains in the world. It was from here that most of the attempts to reach the North Pole have started, including that of Peary - reputedly, but perhaps not actually, the first man to reach the Pole. Nowadays, tourist flights to the Pole by Twin Otter from Resolute Bay are common, but are somewhat expensive. The topography of Ellesmere is dominated by several large and small ice-caps which almost bury the mountains, and only the Agassiz Ice-Cap, which is immediately west of Kane Basin, has a name. On the north-west side there are two large and unnamed ice-caps, the larger of which straddles 82°N and the smaller straddles 8I.5°N. There is also a large unnamed ice-cap immediately west of Smith Sound, a smaller one on the south-east tip of Ellesmere Island, and another north of the settlement of Grise Fiord on the south coast. The north coast of Ellesmere was the home of great ice shelves, but, at about the turn of the century, the ice shelves started to break off and float away as so-called 'ice islands' that circulated for many decades around the arctic ocean, and still do. They have often been used as natural platforms for scientific expeditions. Perhaps nine-tenths of the original ice shelves have floated away.

Study of Gender-based Violence and Shelter Service Needs across Inuit Nunangat Preface It was important to the research team that this study be community driven and uphold the values of Pauktuutit Inuit Women of Canada and the Inuit women that the organization serves. Throughout the project, efforts were made to uphold the Inuit-specific values of Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit (IQ) in each of the seven communities and three urban centres where the research was conducted, including: Yellowknife and Inuvik in the Inuvialuit region of the Northwest Territories; Nain in Nunatsiavut and Happy Valley-Goose Bay in Newfoundland and Labrador; Kuujjuaq and Montreal in Quebec; Cape Dorset, Iqaluit and Clyde River in Nunavut; and, Ottawa in Ontario. The writing of this report is based in responsive research which braids together Inuit knowledge, community-based practices, and western scientific research methods to ensure that the research approach is safe for participants,

Facu1ty of Graduate Studies Interdiscip1inary G1acio10gy Master of Science SUMMARY In 1967, 29 points on the Gi1man Glacier origina11y 10cated in 1957 were repositioned with a mean error of 0.36 m. Their height were redetermined with a mean error of 0.25 m. Refraction coefficients ranged from 0.047 to 0.558, with a mean of 0.162. A profile in the accumulation area showed 1itt1e change. Down­ glacier from a seismic profile near the average position of the equi1ibrium 1ine, 1957 to 1967, the average height 10ss was 2.4 m. From May 1958 to May 1967 the glacier advanced 25.4 m. A volume 10ss ca1cu1ated from height 10ss and glacier advance was 165 x 106 m3 , compared with 140 x 106 m3 ca1cu1ated from mass balance data, part1y estimated for missing years, and glacier f10w through the seismic profile. This area had a negative mass balance of 91 cm ice/yr; 69 cm ice/yr wou1d balance the vertical component of f10w, keeping the surface unchanged.

    GEOSCIENCE CANADA Volume 45 2018 43 ARTICLE having covered over 8700 km including 1600 km on foot, over 4700 km in canoe, 800 km by dog team and 1600 km by steam- er. The report from the expedition provides a compendium on the natural history of the region as well as the first geological maps. In terms of economic and scientific results, the greatest was documentation of the vast iron ore deposits of western Labrador; a world-class mining district that has been produc- ing for sixty-three years since 1954. Low’s account also pro- vides details on the essence of such an epic journey, which stands as a classic in the annals of Canadian geological survey- ing.

The word “Nunavut” means “Our Land” in Inuktut, the language of the Inuit, who represent 85 per cent of Nunavut’s resident’s. The creation of Nunavut as Canada’s third territory had its origins in a desire by Inuit got more say in their future. The first formal presentation of the idea – The Nunavut Proposal – was made to Ottawa in 1976. More than two decades later, in February 1999, Nunavut’s first 19 Members of the Legislative Assembly (MLAs) were elected to a five year term. Shortly after, those MLAs chose one of their own, lawyer Paul Okalik, to be the first Premier. The resulting government is a public one; all may vote - Inuit and non-Inuit, but the outcomes reflect Inuit values.

Ayotte (1,2,4) respectively 5.2 µg/L and 40.36 µg/kg plasma lipids (geometric means). Discussion: Our results suggest a significant decrease (1) Axe santé des populations et pratiques optimales en santé, of Hg and PCB 153 maternal levels from 1992 to 2013.
