The Ymer-Formation - an interglacial sequence in northeasternmost Greenland
Abstract
Kilen is a flat stretch of land around 81"lO'N in northeasternmost Greenland (Fig. l), reaching 35 km into the Flade Isblink ice-cap complex and with 15 km coast along the Nord- 6stvandet polynya. Its Quaternary deposits were for the first time reconnoitered in 1980, during the Swedish Ymer-80 expedition (Hjort 1981a). and studied in more detail in 1985, during the Danish-Swedish Kilen-85 expedition.Downloads
