  • Modelling Population Mobility in Southern Baffin Island's Past
    MODELLING POPULATION MOBILITY IN SOUTHERN BAFFIN ISLAND’S PAST USING GIS AND LANDSCAPE ARCHAEOLOGY by Jeffrey Phillip Stup A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies of The University of Manitoba in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of MASTER OF ARTS Department of Anthropology University of Manitoba Winnipeg, Manitoba Copyright © 2015 by Jeffrey Phillip Stup Abstract Evidence of chert stone tools on southern Baffin Island of Canada dates back thousands of years, yet most of these materials are found far from coastal areas of use. In the central interior lakes region of Baffin Island, chert can be found but this area is extremely remote and hard to access. If past human populations moved inland from the coast to acquire chert toolstone and pursue seasonally specific subsistence-related activities, many archaeological sites should exist between these respective locales. Historically, it has been difficult to locate such intermediate sites given the expansive of the landscape and the logistical challenges of surveying it. In this study, free and open-source geospatial data were used in geographic information systems (GIS) to predict archaeological site formation and potential inland travel routes. The models created link the archaeologically dense coastal and inland regions. These were constructed with a landscape archaeology theoretical approach and validated by comparisons to Inuit ethnographic accounts of interior-bound pathways. A new archaeological-GIS method was created, using a flood allocation function on a ‘humanistic’ cost surface. This ‘mobility-shed’ method generates vast networks of areas most conducive to human movement, aids in solving problems about past human population movements for Baffin Island history, for an ongoing chert provenance study, and will lead to future research through ground-truthing and more in-depth geospatial studies.

  • Arctic Seabirds and Shrinking Sea Ice: Egg Analyses Reveal the Importance
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Arctic seabirds and shrinking sea ice: egg analyses reveal the importance of ice-derived resources Fanny Cusset1*, Jérôme Fort2, Mark Mallory3, Birgit Braune4, Philippe Massicotte1 & Guillaume Massé1,5 In the Arctic, sea-ice plays a central role in the functioning of marine food webs and its rapid shrinking has large efects on the biota. It is thus crucial to assess the importance of sea-ice and ice-derived resources to Arctic marine species. Here, we used a multi-biomarker approach combining Highly Branched Isoprenoids (HBIs) with δ13C and δ15N to evaluate how much Arctic seabirds rely on sea-ice derived resources during the pre-laying period, and if changes in sea-ice extent and duration afect their investment in reproduction. Eggs of thick-billed murres (Uria lomvia) and northern fulmars (Fulmarus glacialis) were collected in the Canadian Arctic during four years of highly contrasting ice conditions, and analysed for HBIs, isotopic (carbon and nitrogen) and energetic composition. Murres heavily relied on ice-associated prey, and sea-ice was benefcial for this species which produced larger and more energy-dense eggs during icier years. In contrast, fulmars did not exhibit any clear association with sympagic communities and were not impacted by changes in sea ice. Murres, like other species more constrained in their response to sea-ice variations, therefore appear more sensitive to changes and may become the losers of future climate shifts in the Arctic, unlike more resilient species such as fulmars. Sea ice plays a central role in polar marine ecosystems; it drives the phenology of primary producers that con- stitute the base of marine food webs.

Il Résumé La densité de familles de la Grande Oie des neiges a augmenté récemment dans les milieux mésiques et secs de l'île Bylot, Nunavut (Canada). Ces milieux qui représentent environ 90% de la plaine sud de l'île sont aussi utilisés, parfois intensément, par les lemmings. Cette étude est la première à caractériser la végétation de ces milieux et à quantifier l'utilisation faite par ces principaux herbivores. L'utilisation et la sélection des habitats humides et mésiques par les familles d'oies ont également été étudiées via des décomptes d'oies. Dix communautés végétales ont été identifiées en 2000 et 2001. Leur couvert total de végétation était élevé (>95%), à l'exception de deux communautés végétales xériques.

Especially convincing is evidence, presented by DAMASKE & OAKEY (2006), that at least one basic dyke of Neoproterozoic age extends across Smith Sound from Inglefield Land to inshore eastern Ellesmere Island without any recognizable strike slip offset. INTRODUCTION These results confirm that no major sinistral fault exists in southern Nares Strait. It is apparent to both earth scientists and the general public To account for the absence of a Wegener Fault in most parts of Nares Strait, that the shape of both coastlines and continental margins of the present paper would locate the late Paleocene-Eocene Greenland plate boundary on an interconnected system of faults that are 1) traced through western Greenland and eastern Arctic Canada provide for a Jones Sound in the south, 2) lie between the Eurekan Orogen and the Precam- satisfactory restoration of the opposing lands.
