Undisturbed oriented archaeological sediment samples were retrieved from the interior of three communal semisubterranean sod houses using steel Kubiëna boxes (10 cm3). The sampling strategy was aimed at obtaining a micromorphological portrait of each activity carried ou...

43 archeological samples were collected from the inside of the three communal houses selected for this study: 11 samples from House 1, 16 from House 2 and 16 from House 7 within each of the different architectural sectors of the houses (sleeping platform, entrance tunne...

POLLEN ANALYSIS The lake selected for coring is located 500 m south of Oakes Bay 1 archeological site. An 80-cm long core was extracted from the peaty margin of the lake. Loss-on-ignition (LOI) and pollen and spore analyses were performed at 2-cm intervals on this core....

Four peat monoliths (KDA-M1, KDA-M2, BST-M1 and HVK M1) were extracted by hand and sampled for stratigraphical, macrofossil (plants and insects) and diatom analyses. Monoliths KDA-M1 and KDA-M2 were extracted approximately 10 m north and 15 m west of the homefield close...

Spore and pollen analyses were performed at 1cm intervals on a 21cm-long monolith (UR3-M7) extracted from the peaty terrace around the archaeological site. We focused on the UR3-M7 sample because organic matter (OM) accumulated earlier in the sampled point, at about 303...

Cette étude consiste en des analyses lithostratigraphiques, sédimentologiques (granulométrie) et minéralogiques du paléodelta de la rivière Svalbarðsa (nord-est de l'Islande). La coupe étudiée faisant partie de ce delta, présente une alternance de deux types de couches ...

This data is in relation to thirty-two gravity cores collecting during the 2016 field season aboard the MV Nuliajuk, a Government of Nunavut research vessel. Cores were collected in conjunction with the Geological Survey of Canada, with the physical samples currently re...

The project was conducted under the umbrella of the "Variability and Change in the Canadian Cryosphere" network. A latitudinal transect study was conducted northern Québec, Eastern Canada in February 2008. Gridded sampling of snow (thickness, snow water equivalent (SWE)...

The fieldwork consisted of excavating stratigraphic exposures (up to 5 meters height) inside the permafrost. These sections were excavated to clarify the depositional sequences that occurred during the Plio-Pleistocene boundary. For stratigraphic exposures, detailed (cm...

Four sites containing Late Dorset (ca. 750-1200 cal AD) longhouses were investigated. Longhouses were built by Late Dorset people at summer aggregations. The Outcrop site (NhNg-1) contained one longhouse, Starvation Cove (NgNf-1) contained two longhouses, Oxford I (NgNg...
