Tasersiaq Area-Sukkertoppen Ice Cap Studies

"RF Project 1701, Report No. 2."In September, 1963, The Ohio State University prepared a preliminary report describing the scientific program undertaken by members of the Institute of Polar Studies in the Tasersiaq area of southwestern Greenland during the period June 21 – September 1, 1963. This final report submitted by R.P. Goldthwait discusses the results of the analysis of data during the post-field season to April 1, 1964. Some of the scientific programs need a second field season before the most significant results can be obtained as was pointed out in the preliminary report. Thus, the reports contained herein are final reports for the period of the contract, but some of the studies are not yet complete enough for publication in a scientific journal.Arctic Institute of North America, Inc.
