Despite a low tidal range and relatively low wave conditions, the Mackenzie Delta is not prograding seaward but rather is undergoing transgressive shoreface...
Twelve piston cores were used to characterize late Quaternary lithofacies, depositional processes and deglacial history along the Baffin Bay slope between...
The Coastal Information System (CIS) has been developed at the Geological Survey of Canada (Atlantic) (GSC Atlantic) to store data on shore-zone geomorphologic...
Quantitative X-ray diffraction (qXRD) mineralogy of bedrock, ice-rafted, and fluvial clasts, 239 seafloor samples (<2 mm), and samples from two long piston...
The Laurentian Fan is one of the largest submarine fans on the western margin of the North Atlantic. Recently acquired high-resolution multibeam bathymetric...
Mass transport deposits, up to 3·9 m thick, have been identified from piston cores collected from canyon floors and inter-canyon ridges on the central Scotian...

The central Scotian Slope demonstrates a complex seafloor morphology super-imposed on a regional gradient of 2-4degrees across the margin. The west-central...
Marine geohazards in Baffin Bay are varied and widespread across the region. Turbidity currents are present mostly on fiord-head submarine deltas supplied by...
