Arctic marine phytobenthos of northern Baffin Island
Global climate change is expected to alter the polar bioregions faster than any other marine environment. This study assesses the biodiversity of seaweeds and associated eukaryotic pathogens of an established study site in northern Baffin Island (72° N), providing a baseline inventory for future work assessing impacts of the currently ongoing changes in the Arctic marine environment. A total of...
متن کاملLower respiratory tract infections in Inuit infants on Baffin Island.
BACKGROUND It has long been suspected that Canadian Inuit children suffer from frequent severe lower respiratory tract infections (LRTIs), but the causes and risk factors have not been documented. This study assessed the infectious causes and other epidemiologic factors that may contribute to the severity of LRTI in young Inuit children on Baffin Island. METHODS A prospective case study was c...
متن کاملHolocene glaciation and climate evolution of Baffin Island, Arctic Canada
Lake sediment cores and cosmogenic exposure (CE) dates constrain the pattern of deglaciation and evolution of climate across Baffin Island since the last glacial maximum (LGM). CE dating of erratics demonstrates that the northeastern coastal lowlands became ice-free ca.14 ka as the Laurentide Ice Sheet (LIS) receded from its LGM margin on the continental shelf. Coastal lakes in southeastern Baf...
متن کاملDental caries prevalence in the Baffin Island Eskimo.
A survey of 766 Eskimo children in Baffin Zone of the Northwest Territories showed high levels of dental caries comparable to those found elsewhere in the Arctic. Lowest caries rates were in Pond Inlet, one of the most isolated settlements. The fluoridation of water supplies in Frobisher Bay appeared to be effecting a reduction in dental caries in the permanent teeth but not in the deciduous te...
متن کاملThe efficiency of different sampling methods in studies of vegetation in Central Zagros forests
There are various vegetation sampling methods regarding objectives of Management at forests. To aim of this study, we undertook a comparative study at Shineh Ghelaee protected forest at middle Zagros using single-scale sampling, single-scale sampling based on transects, and multi-scale sampling methods to investigate the herbaceous layer diversity. In order to know the situation of the region a...
