Field observations around northern Godthåbsfjord, southern west Greenland

Abstract

Mapping for the Fiskefjord map sheet was continued (Garde, 1984) for eight weeks in 1985. The author was first accompanied by F. Kalsbeek, and continued with H. K. Olsen and then J. Sangstad as assistants. The GGU cutter J. F. Johnstrup and a Jet Ranger helicopter on day charter from Nuuk provided logistic support. Mapping was carried out in the eastern part of the map sheet area along the coasts of Godthåbsfjord and Qugssuk, and on the peninsula Ivnarssuaq towards the eastem map sheet boundary at 50° 54'W (fig. 1).
