Online_Linkage: Description: Abstract: Open Files 1628-1631 are 1:50 000 scale surficial (Quaternary) geology maps of the northern part of NTS 47D, Baffin Island, Nunavut. The area was not mapped previously. This area was entirely glaciated by the Baffin Sector of the Laurentide Ice Sheet. The surficial geology thus reflects the effects of glaciation, ice recession, and associated relative sea level adjustments. The maps share a common legend with Open Files 1598-1613, which were released earlier. The maps were prepared from airphoto interpretation by the author in 2002 and 2003 and subsequently field checked in part by the author. The area of this mapping project also covers NTS 47E, 37C, and 37F. Purpose: Supplemental_Information: Data set is in English. Magnetic declination stated in degrees and minutes. Annual change stated in minutes. Magnetic declination at center of map: 36°26'W, changing 40.1'E annually. Proximity of the North Magnetic Pole causes the compass to be erratic in this area.
