Swedish quaternary geologists were aided by Danish logistics in conducting an expedition to the northeast coast of Greenland. They worked on Jameson Land, Mestersvig and other locations up toward the Danish Zackenberg Station.
The research focused on establishing extent and thickness of the ice during the various phases of glaciation. The researchers used detailed landscape analysis combined with cosmogenic exposure dating of glacially eroded rock surfaces and glacially transported boulders.
