This new map is at 1:4,000,000 scale covering a region not previously covered on one map sheet. There is a large information sheet on the reverse with topical information about the Arctic, produced by the UK Natural Environment Research Council Arctic Office. The map and information sheet will be an excellent resource for tour visitors, scientists and all with an interest in the Arctic. It is printed on high-quality paper by map printers Dennis Maps as a large format, double-sided sheet. Side A: The map covers the eastern Canadian Arctic, Greenland, Iceland, northern Scotland, Svalbard, Scandinavia, Finland, and the western edge of the Russian Arctic, including Franz Josef Land. Features including glaciers, bays, islands and lakes are named, and the extent of permanent ice is shown. The map includes minimum and maximum sea ice extents for the region and also for the whole Arctic in a small inset map. Major towns, places commonly visited by tour ships and scientific research stations are shown on the map. Side B: The reverse side features a vibrant information panel covering many aspects of Arctic life. Topics such as polar bear conservation, indigenous people and Arctic warming are covered, with contributions from organisations including the UK Met Office and The World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF).

This sheet provides an updated geology of the Miocene to Holocene James Ross Island Volcanic Group (JRIVG). The JRIVG is the largest Neogene volcanic field in the Antarctic Peninsula region and extends over 7000 km¬2. It comprises a major shield volcano (Mt Haddington) and numerous monogenetic flank and satellite volcanoes. Eruptions were mainly of two types: lava-fed deltas and tuff cones. The commonest are lava-fed deltas, a type of volcanic formation resembling a sedimentary delta but formed entirely of volcanic rocks. The tuff cones are piles of yellowish pyroclastic rocks (lapilli tuffs) hundreds of metres high that formed during violent explosions mainly in the sea during ice-poor interglacial periods although it is unlikely that James Ross Island was ever completely ice free during the past 6 m.y.

This double-sided map features South Georgia on one side and The Shackleton Crossing route on the reverse. It includes the locations of abandoned whaling stations and background notes about South Georgia and its history, and a brief encounter of Shackleton’s crossing. Side A: Shows topographic information including: coastline and offshore rocks; bathymetry; rock exposure and moraine; elevation information such as contours and selected mountain summit heights; place names; scientific research stations and abandoned whaling stations. Side B: Covers the route which Sir Ernest Shackleton took on the first ever crossing of South Georgia in 1916 and which is followed by many intrepid explorers today. This 1:40 000 scale map has detailed topographic data created from vhr satellite imagery, with 1:25 000 scale insets of key areas. A cross section of the route is also shown. The map is printed on water-resistant paper and the folded version comes in a card cover. [Folded Map]
