Abstract:

A negative free-air gravity anomaly is associated with Nares Strait, the waterway that separates Ellesmere Island and Greenland. Two east–west gravity profiles that cross Ellesmere Island and Nares Strait were collected. A low with values in the range of −100 to −120 mGal (−1000 to −1200 μm/s2) was observed, and two-dimensional crustal models were created to identify the cause of the anomaly. The gravity anomaly cannot be attributed wholly to the bathymetry of the strait or to the sedimentary rocks underlying the strait. Crustal models that reproduce the anomaly have a M discontinuity that slo

Abstract:

Locally abundant ice-marginal landforms lie in a 500 km long zone with a distal margin 10–60 km west of the margins of modern ice caps on central Ellesmere Island. Much of this drift belt, at the heads of the fiords, was deposited by the oscillating margin of a coalesced predecessor of the modern ice caps between 9000 and 7000 BP. The ice continued to retreat east of the present margin, and readvanced to its modern limit in a middle and late Holocene cooler climate. Unweathered but undated till and striations at the base of the drift suggest that the belt does not mark the western limit of cen

Abstract:

During the first ski traverse of Ellesmere Island in spring 1990, purple saxifrage (Saxifraga oppositifolia) was collected at 10 sites from 76 to 82°N. Measured 137Cs levels in this cushion plant displayed a progressive decrease in activity north of 78°, reflecting past global patterns of radionuclide fallout. Lower 137Cs activity at the southern end of Ellesmere Island may reflect a northward shift of the distribution maximum since a previous latitudinal survey conducted in 1979–1980. Levels of 137Cs in three species of lichens were consistently higher than those for nearby saxifrage, possibl

Fields of hummocks show consistent patterns: forms on convex slopes increase in height downslope until the channel is reached, whereas those on convexo-concave slopes increase on the upper convexity but are buried by niveo-eolian deposition downslope of the snowbank remnant. These trends can be reproduced using a simple numerical model based on measured slope and snow depth

During the first three millennia analyzed here (6–3 ka), mean Arctic snow depth increases, despite enhanced greenhouse forcing. Superimposed on this secular trend is a very abrupt increase in snow depth between 5 and 4.9 ka on Ellesmere Island and the Greenland coasts, in rough agreement with the

A total of 11 ocean-bottom seismometers recorded the airgun signals. The processed data were analyzed by the use of ray tracing and amplitude modelling. Two-dimensional models were derived that reproduce the characteristics of the observed data. A 5 km deep sedimentary basin was identified on the south end of line 3. On both lines the crustal velocity has a range of 5.7–6.6 km/s. Midway along the line on the shelf of

Abstract:

Glacial and marine deposits associated with two phases of glaciation are exposed along a 60 km corridor on Ellesmere Island that borders Robeson Channel. The oldest sediments, tentatively dated at ≥ 70 000 BP, were deposited during a major advance of the northwest Greenland ice sheet across Robeson Channel. During subsequent retreat of this ice mass, glaciomarine sediments containing a High Arctic macro- and microfauna were deposited in the isostatic downwarp on Ellesmere Island. This marine unit was radiocarbon dated at 31 300 ± 900 and > 32 000 BP; mean aIle/Ile ratios are 0.218 ± 0.03 fo

AbstractAn expedition of the Canada/China Dinosaur Project collected several large marine-reptile fossils on western Ellesmere Island in the summer of 1989. They were led to the area by a 1939 report that a large fossil skeleton had been seen north of Trold Fiord by a member of a Royal Canadian Mounted Police patrol in 1926. This paper examines the events of the original discovery and an unsuccessful attempt by David Haig-Thomas to locate the fossils in 1937–38. Haig-Thomas had visited the area in 1935 as a member of the Oxford University Ellesmere Land Expedition. His party had reached a fior

Abstract:

A two-year-old sibling Gray Wolf (Canis lupus) carefully captured an Arctic Hare (Lepus arcticus) leveret alive on Ellesmere Island, Nunavut, Canada, and delivered it alive to a pup 28–33 days old. This appears to be the first observation of a Gray Wolf delivering live prey to a pup.

Abstract:

In the Yelverton Bay region of northwestern Ellesmere Island, bimodal intrusive and volcanic rocks are associated with a major fault in the Proterozoic–Cambrian rocks of the Pearya Terrane. The Wootton intrusion consists mainly of gabbro with lesser amounts of granitic and hybrid rocks; the Hansen Point volcanics are composed of felsic rocks and basalt. Plutonic zircons are very slightly discordant, but volcanic zircons have unusually high degrees of inheritance. Interpreted U/Pb zircon ages of 92.0 ± 1.0 Ma for the Wootton intrusion (assuming a wide range of inheritance ages) and of [Formula:
