Investigations on the Quaternary deposits in the Godthåbsfjord area, southern West Greenland

A reconnaissance of the Quaternary deposits around Godthåbsfjord was carried out during the summer with the assistance of Flemming Damslund. The field work represented a northerly continuation of the reconnaissance of 1973 in the Fiskenæsset area (Weidick, 1974) and was made with the purpose of collecting information for tbe Quaternary Map Sheet 1:500 000 Frederikshåbs Isblink - Søndre Strømfjord. The area surveyed extended from Nordlandet and the islands west of the town of Godthåb to the inner branches of Godtbåbsfjord at Kangersuneq (fig. 11).
