Most of the peninsula of Labrador-Ungava is within the belt of coniferous forests which extends around the world in northern latitudes, and the present study is on the forests and physiography around Goose Bay, Labrador, an area which has come into recent focus as the site of an important air base. This area, together with almost all of the rest of Canada, has been photographed from the air in recent years, and this has created a tremendous store of material which was formerly unavailable to the research worker due to the difficulty of travelling through the interior of this rough and sparsely settled country. Naturally, aerial photographs are of great value to scientists in various fields, and many projects are under way using this new source of information.
