This section is an initial attempt at a comprehensive bibliography of scientific papers, engineering reports and miscellaneous articles that refer to sites in this database. Entries particularly pertinent to this database are annotated by the related GSC site numbers. A few site numbers are not found in this database, rather are in the "shallow" database in preparation(see text).
e.g. Bateman, 1949: pertinent data is site 66 (Yellowknife) and site 105 (a mine site at Yellowknife, shallow data collection).
Besides GSC site numbers, alphabetic codes refer to general regions. The codes are:
AI = Arctic Islands (Arctic Archipelago)
ALL = All of arctic Canada
MAC = Mackenzie Delta and Valley including Beaufort Sea
YUKON= Yukon territory
Readers are encouraged to bring other papers or unpublished reports to our attention. The bibliography is alphabetical by first author and by date.
