     Decadal-Scale Proxy Records of the Last 3,000 Years from the          Eastern
     Canadian Arctic and Iceland Based on Lake Sediment          and Palynology This
     PALE/ARCSS award supports a study of decadal-scale variability  in the
     paleoclimate of Iceland over the last 3,000 years.  It is  specifically
     intended to unite projects of Baffin Island and  Iceland by creating lake
     sediment and pollen records for Iceland  that can be compared to similar
     high-resolution records from sites  on Baffin Island, N.W.T., Canada.  This
     effort will help to  integrate paleoclimate records from Greenland, Iceland and
     the  Eastern Canadian Arctic and will provide information useful in  piecing
     together the synoptic climatology of the northern Atlantic  region.
