Onshore-offshore surveying and monitoring of selected arctic coastal areas of Nunavut, 2006-2009

Onshore research was conducted using the following methods: multi-temporal analysis and mapping of modern and raised coastal systems using airphotos, satellite imagery, LiDAR and RTK GPS surveys. Data on the sediment composition of coastal landforms was collected using graded photographs and in situ measurments of gravel samples. Shallow-water mapping of transgressive coastal systems was carried out using multibeam sonar and sub-bottom profiler primarily from the CCGS Amundsen (EM300 30 kHz) and the CSL Heron (EM3002 3.5 kHz) during the 2006 ArcticNet NCE scientific cruise and from the CCGS Henry Larsen and the CSL Heron in 2008.
