Extract

LARGE collections of material have been brought back by numerous Arctic Expeditions, and, as many writers have pointed out, much of this raised beach material proves changes of climatic and other ecological conditions during Quaternary times. Before correlation of Quaternary deposits in Spitsbergen and other Arctic lands can become at all certain, it is essential that as many detailed contributions as possible should be made to our total collection of facts.
