This book was released on 2017-12-13 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Stratigraphy of Unconsolidated Sediments in the Southern Part of Lake Michigan Underlying the Lake Michigan Formation is a series of glacial lacustrine deposits, including sand, sandy pebbly clay, silt, and clay pebble conglomerate. These deposits are more compact, coarser grained, and contain less water than those of the Lake Michigan Formation. They show the direct effect of nearby glaciers. The glacial-lacustrine deposits are assigned to the Carmi Member of the Equality Formation and overlie glacial tills that are assigned to the wadsworth Member of the Wedron Formation.

Download or read book Late Quaternary Sediments of Lake Michigan Classic Reprint written by Jerry T. Wickham and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-18 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Late Quaternary Sediments of Lake Michigan The maps revealed that the glaciolacustrine Equality Formation is dis continuous in Lake Michigan; however, in an area southwest of Grand Haven, Michigan, it displays a thickening that probably represents an offshore exten sion of the Allendale Delta of the glacial Grand River. The two lower members of the overlying Lake Michigan Formation are thickest in the deepwater basins of Lake Michigan. These lower members are composed of an extremely fine grained red glaciolacustrine clay deposited from suspension. In contrast, the upper three units of the Lake Michigan Formation are thickest in a belt along the eastern side of the lake and consist of gray clay resulting from erosion within the Lake Michigan drainage basin by waves and streams. A large influx of sediments from streams in western Michigan and possible redistribution of shoreline erosion debris by lake currents causes the accumulation of gray clay to be greatest on the eastern side of the lake.

Download or read book Quaternary Glaciation of the Great Lakes Region written by Alan Kehew and published by Geological Society of America. This book was released on 2018 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Taking advantage of new technological advances in Quaternary geology and geomorphology, this volume showcases new developments in glacial geology. Honoring the legacy of Frank Leverett and F.B. Taylor's 1915 USGS monograph of the region, this book includes 12 chapters that cover diverse topics ranging from hydrogeology, near-surface geophysics, geotectonics, and vertebrate paleontology to glacial geomorphology and glacial history. Several papers make use of detailed but nuanced shaded relief maps of digital elevation models of LiDAR data; these advances are brought into historical perspective by visiting the history of geologic mapping of Michigan. Looking forward, interpretations of the shaded relief maps evoke novel processes, such as regional evolution of subglacial and supraglacial drainage systems of receding glacial margins. The volume also includes assessment of chronological issues in light of greater accuracy and precision of radiocarbon dating of plant fossils using accelerator mass spectrometry versus older techniques.

Book excerpt: This is a discount Black and white version. Some images may be unclear, please see BCCampus website for the digital version.This book was born out of a 2014 meeting of earth science educators representing most of the universities and colleges in British Columbia, and nurtured by a widely shared frustration that many students are not thriving in courses because textbooks have become too expensive for them to buy. But the real inspiration comes from a fascination for the spectacular geology of western Canada and the many decades that the author spent exploring this region along with colleagues, students, family, and friends. My goal has been to provide an accessible and comprehensive guide to the important topics of geology, richly illustrated with examples from western Canada. Although this text is intended to complement a typical first-year course in physical geology, its contents could be applied to numerous other related courses.

Book excerpt: From the acclaimed author of Ninety-two in the Shade and Cloudbursts—the stories of Gallatin Canyon are rich in the wit, compassion, and matchless language for which Thomas McGuane is celebrated. Set mostly in famed Big Sky Country, McGuane brings us an "astonishing" (The New York Times Book Review) collection in which place exerts the power of destiny. A boy makes a surprising discovery skating at night on Lake Michigan; an Irish clan in Massachusetts gather around their dying matriarch; a battered survivor of the glory days of Key West washes up on other shores. Several of the stories unfold in Big Sky country: a father tries to buy his adult son’s way out of virginity; a convict turns cowhand on a ranch; a couple makes a fateful drive through a perilous gorge. McGuane's people are seekers, beguiled by the land's beauty and myth, compelled by the fantasy of what a locale can offer, forced to reconcile dream and truth.

Download or read book Plant Disturbance Ecology written by Edward A. Johnson and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2010-07-20 with total page 720 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The media coverage of natural disasters (hurricanes, fires, floods, ice storms, etc.) indicates the prevalence of natural disasters in most, if not all, ecosystems. In order for scientists to study, understand, and ultimately predict how these disturbances affect ecosystems, it is necessary for them to know more about the physical processes involved in these disturbances and to learn how to couple these processes to the ecological systems. Essential for all ecologists, forest researchers, and conservation biologists, this book includes chapters on the disturbance processes, how the disturbance causes necrosis or death to individuals, and their effects on population or community processes. In Plant Disturbance Ecology, physical scientists who study disturbances provide an introduction to the physical disturbance processes, while ecologists relate this information to the way the vegetation responds to the disturbances. This reference is also key for all researchers hydrology, geomorphology, and environmental management. Includes coverage on six different disturbance processes: Wind, Gravity, Geomorphic, Hydrologic, Combustion, and Biotic Provides a clear explanation of how some of the physical processes of disturbance affect plant ecological processes Offers ecologists an up-to-date understanding of the physical processes and allows them to predict future affects of disturbances Unites two related fields by linking the disturbance processes and ecological responses Presents physical scientists with ideas of how they might usefully apply their knowledge to advance understanding of ecological systems
