This project will collect sediment cores from two permanently                   stratified lakes in the eastern Canadian Arctic that are likely to              contain varved (annually laminated) sediments:  Ogac Lake in                    southern Baffin Island and Tessiarsuk Lake in northern Labrador.                Multiple cores from each lake will be collected and cross-                      correlated using dendrochronological methods to minimize between-               core errors in measurement of varve thickness and composition.                  The resulting new high-resolution varve chronologies could                      significantly improve the temporal precision with which                         correlations can be made among widely separated lakes.  Time                    series of varve thickness and composition will be examined to                   assess their potential as paleoclimatic sensors.  New temperature-              stressed and possibly moisture-stressed three-ring chronologies                 will be developed from trees within the Tessiarsuk watershed.                   Time series of tree-ring data will be examined to see if they can               be calibrated against time series of varve data.
