Online_Linkage: Description: Abstract: The Open File maps at 1:50 000 scale of the part of Jens Munk Island within NTS 47D and at 1:100 000 scale of Koch Island and Rowley Island (37C), all in Foxe Basin south and west of Baffin Island, Nunavut are the first complete surficial geology maps of the region. The northern Foxe Basin 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 open file maps share a common legend, which has been adapted from the legend of previously published adjoining maps of northwestern Baffin Island. The Open File maps were prepared from airphoto interpretation by Dyke in 2004 following field checking by Dyke and Savelle during field seasons 2002 and 2003. Field work was supported entirely by De Beers Canada Exploration. These maps are the third set to be released from a new project, which also involved mapping of areas to the north (47E, 37F, and parts of 47D and 37C, already released). Purpose: Supplemental_Information: Data set is in English. Magnetic declination stated in degrees and minutes. Annual change stated in minutes. Magnetic declination at NW corner of map: 36°26'W, changing 44.6'E annually. Magnetic declination at SW corner of map: 35°22'W, changing 42.6'E annually. Magnetic declination at NE corner of map: 37°13'W, changing 45'E annually. Magnetic declination at SE corner of map: 36°8'W, changing 43.1'E annually. Magnetic declination at center of map: 36°17'W, changing 43.8'E annually. Proximity of the North Magnetic Pole causes the compass to be erratic in this area.
