Nunavut 2007 Expedition

Ancient Terrestrial Ecosystems in the Canadian High Arctic
2007 Nunavut Expedition

Our trip is primarily scientific in nature, and will be exploring various regions in the High Arctic for fossil remains of plants and animals. Our primary research goal is to learn more about global climate change and how it has changed in the past and may change in the future. Our party is made up of 6 members, all of whom have previous palaeontological field experience, and several of whom have previous Arctic experience. Our expedition will last for approximately one month, with most of the time spent actively hiking and searching for new fossil bearing localities. From July 10th to July 27th 2007, we will be traveling to Bylot and BaffinIslands in Nunavut, Canada. These locations are above the Arctic Circle, and so we will be experiencing close to 24-hour daylight.
