Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the second of three volumes in which the recent knowledge of the extent and chronology of Quaternary glaciations has been compiled on a global scale. This information is seen as a fundamental requirement, not only for the glacial community, but for the wider user-community of general Quaternary workers. In particular the need for accurate ice-front positions is a basic requirement for the rapidly growing field of palaeoclimate modelling. In order to provide the information for the widest-possible range of users in the most accessible form, a series of digital maps was prepared. The glacial limits were mapped in ArcView, the Geographical Information System (GIS) used by the work group. Included with the publication is a CD with digital maps, showing glacial limits, end moraines, ice-dammed lakes, glacier-induced drainage diversions and the locations of key sections through which the glacial limits are defined and dated. The last deglaciation is also shown in 500 year time-steps. The digital maps in this volume cover the USA and Canada and include Greenland and Hawaii. Both overview maps and more detailed maps at a scale 1: 1,000,000 are provided.

Download or read book Geology of the Ice Age National Scenic Trail written by David M. Mickelson and published by University of Wisconsin Pres. This book was released on 2011-10-20 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Ice Age National Scenic Trail meanders across the state of Wisconsin through scenic glacial terrain dotted with lakes, steep hills, and long, narrow ridges. David M. Mickelson, Louis J. Maher Jr., and Susan L. Simpson bring this landscape to life and help readers understand what Ice Age Wisconsin was like. An overview of Wisconsin’s geology and key geological concepts helps readers understand geological processes, materials, and landforms. The authors detail geological features along each segment of the Ice Age Trail and at each of the nine National Ice Age Scientific Reserve sites. Readers can experience the Ice Age Trail through more than one hundred full-color photographs, scores of beautiful maps, and helpful diagrams. Science briefs explain glacial features such as eskers, drumlins, and moraines. Geology of the Ice Age National Scenic Trail also includes detailed trail descriptions that are cross referenced with the science briefs to make it easy to find the geological terms used in the trail descriptions. Whatever your level of experience with hiking or knowledge of glaciers, this book will provide lively, informative, and revealing descriptions for a new understanding of the shape of the land beneath our feet.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Pleistocene History of the Lower Wisconsin River: A Dissertation The Wisconsin River, rising among the glacial lakes in the northern part of the state of Wisconsin, flows almost due south nearly to Portage, where it turns and flowing westward for a dis tance of about 80 miles joins the Mississippi just south of Prairie du Chien (fig. I). It is this lower, east-west part of the river valley which is discussed in this paper'. The terminal moraine of the Wisconsin glacial epoch crosses the valley just east of Prairie du Sac and marks not only the eastern boundary of the region here considered but also that of the driftless area. Since glacial drift is found in Iowa opposite the lower end of the valley, it may be said that the Wisconsin River traverses from east to west the entire driftless area. It is thus seen that drift remnants which are found in this part of the valley are of important significance in the history of ancient ice invasions in bordering regions. These remnants of glacial drift in the valley fall naturally into two divisions: First, there are terraces of Wisconsin age: (a) remnants of the valley train Sloping from the terminal moraine, where it crosses the valley near Prairie du Sac, to the Mississippi River, and (b) a lower terrace standing only I 5 feet above the pres ent river flood-plain; and second, standing well above the preced ing terrace, are rock benches covered with much older drift. These upper benches have a gentle slope toward the east (fig. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
