UVTRL Field Research:
Summer 2012: Researchers from the UVTRL completed fieldwork in the Mt. Waddington area at Franklin
Glacier, at Queen Bess Glacier at the northern end of the Homathko Icefield, and at numerous sites in the Boundary Ranges from
Terrace to Cassiar. See our
2012 photo album from our July travels.
Summer 2011: Researchers from the UVTRL completed fieldwork in the Mt. Waddington area at Scimitar Glacier, in the Cambria Icefield area
at Bromley Glacier and at a scattering of sites in the northwestern British Columbia. See our
2011 photo album from our July travels.
Summer 2010: Researchers from the UVTRL completed fieldwork in the Bella Coola area, at Pattullo Glacier and in the Monarch Icefield area. See our
2010 photo album from the Bella Coola area.
Spring 2010: Researchers from the UVTRL completed fieldwork at Zeballos Lake on Vancouver Island. In-situ trees submerged following a landslide 2300 years ago were sampled during
a low water stage in March 2010. Go to our Zeballos Lake photo album.
Summer 2009: Researchers from the UVTRL completed fieldwork at Jambeau Glacier in the Mt. Waddington area, in the vicinity of the
Cambria Icefield and on northern Vancouver Island. See our 2009 Photo album from Jambeau Glacier.
Summer 2008: Researchers from the UVTRL undertook field studies in the Homathko Icefield, in the Mt. Waddington area, and in the
Cambria Icefield areas of the British Columbia Coast Mountains. See our 2008 Photo album.
Summer 2007: Field investigations were completed in Kwadacha Wilderness Provincial Park in the Northern Canadian
Rocky Mountains and in Upper Lillooet Provincial Park in the southern British Columbia
Coast Mountains. See our 2007 Photo album.
