Glacial-meteorological studies in north Ellesmere Island, 1958.

“Operation Hazen,” sponsored by the Defence Research Board, Department of National Defence, Ottawa, was a three-phase expedition forming part of the Canadian contribution to the International Geophysical Year. The first phase of the expedition, from May, 1957 to August, 1958, involved the establishment of a base camp on the shores of Lake Hazen, and the setting up of an “Icecap” station on the Gilman Glacier. At the latter camp, a programme of glaciological, meteorological, survey and seismic work was carried out during field season of 1957.
