Final field report - Arctic surveys Central region, 1973 / A.R. Mortimer, hydrographer-in-charge.: En32-15/1973E-PDF
"Norwegian Bay is the most eastern area of water lying within the Queen Elizabeth Islands. Ellesmere Island lies to the east, Axel Heiberg Island to the north, and Devon Island to the south. Physio-graphically, the Norwegian Bay can be divided into two zones. Low-lying sedimentary areas are found to the west of the bay, and to the east are the foothills of the Ellesmere Island cordillera. Prior to the survey, all sounding information available was along icebreaker routes, principally from Hell Gate to Eureka Fiord, and little was known of the submarine topography of the bay"--Introduction, page 3.
