Field work in the Ujaragssuit nunât area, Ivisârtoq region, inner Godthåbsfjord, southern West Greenland

Abstract

FolIowing the successful completion of the Buksefjorden project, 63 V.1 N (1972-1979), the Geological Survey of Greenland and the Department of Geology, University of Exeter, have begun another joint project in the Ivisartoq region, 64 Y.2 N, in inner Godthåbsfjord. The field programmes (1981-1984) and laboratory studies at Exeter are being organised on lines similar to those of the Buksefjorden project, with supervision of four research assistants by B. Chadwick and K. Coe. M. A. Crewe and S. Robertson began work as research assistants in 1981. The generous support by the Survey, the University of Exeter, and the Natural Environment Research Council, UK, is gratefully acknowledged.
