La Hudson's Bay Company s'est installée à PondInlet dès 1921, puis en 1929 vinrent des missions catholique et protestante. PondInlet s'est développé à partir d'un point de peuplement esquimau. Jusqu'au début des années60, ceux-ci vivaient en
Downdrift coarsening of beach foreshore sediments at tidal inlets : an example from the coast of New Jersey
This study was conducted to examine differences in grain size characteristics of beach foreshore sediments at tidal inlets in greater detail and to provide additional explanations for their differences. It is suggested that tidal currents play
a role in sediment coarsening at inlets, but coarser grain sizes are also related to offshore diversion of fine sediments moved to the inlet flank by longshore currents and to the removal of fine sediments from inlet flank beaches by winds and by low
The Bergen inlet, transgressive and regressive Holocene shoreline deposits in the Northwestern Netherlands in Special issue in the honour of J. D. De Jong.
This paper deals with the sediments that have filled up the Bergen inlet. The scouring effect of the inlet caused significant erosion of the Pleistocene sandy sediments. Dating by mean of pollen analysis indicate a short life of the Bergen inlet
Ice flow and morphology of Prestrud Inlet and western Sultzberger ice shelf, West Antarctica
Mesures de la vitesse de la glace pour la période 1986-1989 dérivées de trois paires d'images Landsat couvrant le Prestrud Inlet et le Plateau de Glace Sultzberger occidental, Antarctique occidentale.
Long-term morphological impacts of the opening of a new inlet on a multiple inlet system
This study focuses on the dominant Faro-Olhão and Armona inlets in the Ria Formosa barrier island system of southern Portugal. The equilibrium state and future evolution of the system are inferred using a range of morphological and hydrodynamic
indicators, including the evolution of the inlet cross-section, changes in tidal prism, and changes in the dimensions (length and area) of barrier islands. The results reveal how the morphology of an interconnected two-inlet bay system and the adjacent
coastlines has evolved following the artificial opening and stabilization of Faro-Olhão inlet since 1929. A clear relationship between barrier island size, inlet cross-section/width, and tidal prism is demonstrated. The work highlights the importance of ebb

Phytoplankton crops in Saanich Inlet were characterized by their content of photosynthetic pigments and by their taxonomic compositions from early April to mid-December, 1981. Crop sizes were correlated to particle volumes, bacterial activities
Late Quaternary sea level history in the Paulatuk to Bathurst Inlet area, Northwest Territories
Etude des variations du niveau marin et de la déglaciation dans la région de Paulatuk-inlet Bathurst. Les courbes de niveau marin indiquent que le relèvement postglaciaire augmentait uniformément de l'ouest vers l'est. La distribution spatiale et la
Late Quaternary evolution of a fjord environment in preservation inlet, New Zealand
High-resolution seismic profiles, as well as sedimentological and micropaleontological analyses of three cores, are used to reconstruct the environmental and sedimentological evolution of Preservation Inlet, the southernmost New Zealand fjord, since
The Steensby Inlet ice stream in the context of the deglaciation of northern Baffin Island, eastern Arctic Canada
This paper deals with the glacial history of northern Baffin Island. Its main focus is the glacial bedforms and debris dispersal attributed to the Steensby Inlet flow event, which is interpreted as an ice stream. Antecedent conditions
are illustrated based on recent mapping. The evolution of the ice cover, including its thickness, flow patterns, moraine construction, debris dispersal and inferred ice streams, is presented. The Steensby Inlet flow event and inferred ice stream are then discussed
phase| an apron phase, in wich the channel was obliterated and a rechannelized phase. Probable trajectories of the Rupert Inlet and Redondo systems in slope-discharge parameter space are proposed and illustrate the importance to the occurrence
Estimate of long-term sediment discharge at tidal inlets using water level data from a tide gauge
It is the purpose of this contribution to develop a simple, low cost approach to the estimate of sediment discharge through the entrance channel. Such a method is based upon an understanding of the hydroynamic behaviour of tidal inlets. According
