Updated postglacial marine limits along western Hudson Bay, central mainland Nunavut and northern Manitoba / I. McMartin, M.S. Gauthier, and A.V. Page.: M183-2/8921E-PDF
"A digital compilation of updated postglacial marine limits was completed in the coastal regions of central mainland Nunavut and northern Manitoba between Churchill and Queen Maud Gulf. The compilation builds on and updates previous mapping of the marine limits at an unprecedented scale, making use of high-resolution digital elevation models, new field-based observations of the marine limit and digital compilations of supporting datasets (i.e marine deltas and marine sediments). The updated mapping also permits a first-hand, knowledge-driven interpolation of a continuous limit of marine inundation linking the Tyrrell Sea to Arctic Ocean seawaters. The publication includes a detailed description of the mapping methods, a preliminary interpretation of the results, and a GIS scalable layout map for easy access to the various layers"--Abstract, page 2.
