Keith Richard Greenaway
Keith Richard Greenaway , who died on 21 May 2010, aged 94, established himself early in his career as the pre-eminent authority in north America on Arctic air navigation. He was only a flight lieutenant, RCAF, with 11 years service when he published his Arctic air navigation (1951), which immediately became the standard textbook in its field. The book deals with all aspects of air navigation, bringing information scattered in various publication…
Obituaries
Sir Wally Herbert , (Fig. 1), who died on 12 June 2007, aged 72, was a polar traveller of renown: a romantic adventurer in the British tradition who had the misfortune to be born 50 years too late. Sadly, his hard won achievements brought him only transitory fame
German Antarctic Expedition, 1873–74
In late February/early March 1874, the members of Eduard Dallman's German ‘Grönland’ Expedition erected a commemorative plaque at Potter Cover, King George Island, South Shetland Islands. This historic monument was previously noted by a four-man party in 1949

Obituary

Obituary
James Edward Butler Futtit Farrington , known to friends and expedition colleagues by his nickname ‘Fram,’ died at Lisburn, Co. Antrim, on 4 October 2002, aged 94. He was one of a handful of surviving holders of the Polar Medal in Bronze, abolished after 1941. He should also have received the Polar Medal in Silver, but the medal was denied him during his lifetime through a technicality; it has, however, since been awarded to him after his death

The British Arctic Expedition, 187576
The British Arctic Expedition sailed from Portsmouth on 29 May 1875. It left amid considerable public enthusiasm and with a telegram from the Queen. A contemporary journal had this to say: As we hope, so we believe that they will end their northward advance only at the northernmost meeting of the meridians; that they will return in safety to receive well-won applause and reward for their achievements; and that they will have very much to tell of …
Northern Ellesmere Island
The ellesmere ice shelf expeditions of 1953 and 1954 were launched under the auspices of the Canadian Defence Research Board * and the Canadian Geo? logical Survey, with the addition in 1954 of the United States Air Force Cambridge Research Center (A.F.C.R.C.) and the Snow Ice and Permafrost Research Estab? lishment, Corps of Engineers, United States Army (S.I.P.R.E.). In the course of our work we came on a number of relics of our predecessors in…

Confusion of place names; an example from Antarctica
Place names in the Hughes Bay area, Danco Coast, Antarctica well illustrate naming problems that give rise to confusion or ambiguity. This note shows the origins of conflicting place names, providing a warning to scientists and others and a key of foreign equivalents to some of the names accepted for British official use

Results of Radio Echo Sounding in Northern Ellesmere Island, 1966
The Ellesmere Ice Shelf and the Ice Islands1
Arctic Ice Islands
Contains an account of the discovery of two groups of "ice islands" evidently originating on the north coast of Ellesmere Island. Their size, shape and surface structure, as well as tracking the drift of the large ice islands by planes and radar, are discussed by Major Koenig (from U.S.A.F. "Ptarmigan" and other flights), and by Squadron-Leader Greenaway (from Canadian flights and air photographs). Extensive documentation is presented (by Miss Du…
Northern Ellesmere Island, 1953 And 1954
Account of the Ellesmere Ice Shelf Expeditions, organized by the Defence Research Board and Geological Survey of Canada. On reconnaissance Apr.-Aug. 1953, G.F. Hattersley-Smith and R.G. Blackadar made glaciological and geological observations west from Alert to Markham Bay (including Ross River and Feilden Peninsula), east to Cape Sheridan, and southwest along Wood River toward the United States Range. In 1954 (Apr.-Sept.), G.F. Hattersley-Smith,…

The Rolls on the Ellesmere Ice Shelf
Surface rolls are characteristic features of both the Ellesmere ice shelf and the floating ice islands derived from it. These surface features are described and their origin and evolution discussed. Various theories of origin are considered which involve such forces as pressure from the polar pack, movement of glaciers, temperature variations, tidal movements and wind. Of these, wind action appears the most likely to have caused the rolls, and it…

Transport, equipment and stores used during Operation “Hazen”, 1957–59
Operation “Hazen” was an IGY expedition, organized by the Canadian Defence Research Board to carry out scientific studies in the Lake Hazen area of northern Ellesmere Island, from April 1957 to August 1959. From April to August 1957, a party of six carried out glaciological, glacial-meteorological, seismic, and survey studies on Gilman Glacier, and two geologists worked out from Hazen Camp, the main station on Lake Hazen. From August 1957 to Apri…

Stratified Water of a Glacial Lake in Northern Ellesmere Island
Antoinette Bay constitutes the central arm of Greely Fiord and extends 40 km. east-northeastward from its junction with Tanquary Fiord in about 80°50'N, 79°W. A large tidewater glacier, flowing northwestward from the Mer de Glace Agassiz to the southeast, has blocked off the head of the bay (or, more properly, fiord) and separates it from the long narrow lake that is the natural extension of the fiord to the east. We visited Antoinette Bay and th…
On the Oceanography of the Nansen Sound Fiord System
Summarizes exploration of the fiord system of northwest Ellesmere and northeast Axel Heiberg Islands, from discovery in 1883 to 1962, and describes in detail results of oceanographic surveys in 1962. Temperature and salinity data are graphed and analyzed. Water warmer than -10C below 100 m is believed to be derived from the Atlantic water intermediate layer in the Arctic Ocean. A persistent inversion at 40 m in the Tanquary and other upper fiords…

Postglacial Uplift at Tanquary Fiord, Northern Ellesmere Island, Northwest Territories
Constructs a postglacial uplift curve for the upper part of Tanquary Fiord from radiocarbon ages of marine shells and peat. Data show the head of the fiord to be clear of glacier ice by at least 6500 yr BP. During 6500-5000 yr BP isostatic uplift was at a rate of about 3.5 m/century and subsequently about 25 cm/cent

An Archaeological Site on the North Coast of Ellesmere Island
In July 1965, at the end of a long walk westward from Alert, I marked down an Eskimo site on the south side of the well-developed delta terrace at the mouth of the Wood River, 82°30' N, 63°07' W. In setting and lay-out it resembled sites of the Independence I and II cultures that we found at Tanquary Fiord in 1963 .... It was not until August 1972 that I was able to revisit the delta of the Wood River.... The Eskimo site is 11.5 m above sea level…
