The rugged, glaciated, coast of Svalbard, Arctic Norway, contains a record of extreme climate changes, the formation and demise of a supercontinent, and the keys to understanding the plate tectonic evolution of the Arctic (Hoffman et al., 2012; Gasser & Andresen, 2013). In 2016 and 2017, I travelled to southwestern Svalbard to sample, map, and document the rock record and uncover the geological history of this small island archipelago. Support from the Alumni Grant Award allowed me to date previously undated rock strata of southwestern Svalbard.
