While the data collected is sufficient to monitor glacial retreat, there can be extended research on the area. This research would include data collection of surrounding Labrador Sea temperature, change detection of vegetation and exposed land area, comparison to similar glaciers and further understanding of historical measurements prior to 1985. With more research and data collection of the area, we might be able to present a stronger correlation between temperature and glacial retreat. Sources: , , Alley, Richard B., > 10/21/05.
