In the present study, we use two non-destructive and high-resolution systems (computed tomography, X-ray fluorescence) to address all sedimentological facies and structural characteristics on a 6 m long, partly laminated sediment record, from Vouliagmeni lake, located at the eastern part of the Corinth Gulf, Greece. Vouliagmeni lake is the deepest coastal lake in Greece, and its location is of great importance since it is located in one of the most tectonically active regions in the world. The chronological framework of the retrieved sediment sequence spans the last 12,000 years, with alternations of laminated and non-laminated sections.

  • Glacial Lake Varves, Dennistown Plantation, ME Maine Geological Survey
    Glacial Lake Varves, Dennistown Plantation, ME Maine Geological Survey Maine Geologic Facts and Localities October, 2002 Glacial Lake Varves, Dennistown Plantation, Maine 45o 38‘ 56.91“ N, 70o 15‘ 57.07“ W Text by Tom Weddle Maine Geological Survey, Department of Agriculture, Conservation & Forestry 1 Glacial Lake Varves, Dennistown Plantation, ME Maine Geological Survey Introduction During the summer of 2002, the Maine Geological Survey conducted mapping in the Jackman area in northwestern Maine. Exposures of glacial lake sediments known as varves were found along Sandy Stream on the border between Dennistown Plantation and Moose River, northern Somerset County, approximately 3 miles north of the village of Jackman (Figure 1). Maine Geological Survey Map USGS Map by Figure 1. Location of varve section on Sandy Stream, and some features mentioned in text. Maine Geological Survey, Department of Agriculture, Conservation & Forestry 2 Glacial Lake Varves, Dennistown Plantation, ME Maine Geological Survey Varves Varves are rhythmic couplets of coarse-grained and fine-grained sediments. A varve couplet represents one year of sediment deposition into a lake. The coarse component usually consists of silt and a minor amount of sand, and is deposited during ice-free conditions when streams bringing sediment to the lake are greatly charged with debris. This part of the varve is commonly referred to as the summer layer. Sometimes there can be multiple coarse layers depending on frequency of sediment influx. The fine sediment consists of silt and clay particles, settled out during the winter when the coarse sediment influx is greatly reduced, and is commonly called the winter layer.

  • Part 629 – Glossary of Landform and Geologic Terms
    Title 430 – National Soil Survey Handbook Part 629 – Glossary of Landform and Geologic Terms Subpart A – General Information 629.0 Definition and Purpose This glossary provides the NCSS soil survey program, soil scientists, and natural resource specialists with landform, geologic, and related terms and their definitions to— (1) Improve soil landscape description with a standard, single source landform and geologic glossary. (2) Enhance geomorphic content and clarity of soil map unit descriptions by use of accurate, defined terms. (3) Establish consistent geomorphic term usage in soil science and the National Cooperative Soil Survey (NCSS). (4) Provide standard geomorphic definitions for databases and soil survey technical publications. (5) Train soil scientists and related professionals in soils as landscape and geomorphic entities. 629.1 Responsibilities This glossary serves as the official NCSS reference for landform, geologic, and related terms. The staff of the National Soil Survey Center, located in Lincoln, NE, is responsible for maintaining and updating this glossary. Soil Science Division staff and NCSS participants are encouraged to propose additions and changes to the glossary for use in pedon descriptions, soil map unit descriptions, and soil survey publications. The Glossary of Geology (GG, 2005) serves as a major source for many glossary terms. The American Geologic Institute (AGI) granted the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service (formerly the Soil Conservation Service) permission (in letters dated September 11, 1985, and September 22, 1993) to use existing definitions. Sources of, and modifications to, original definitions are explained immediately below. 629.2 Definitions A. Reference Codes Sources from which definitions were taken, whole or in part, are identified by a code (e.g., GG) following each definition.
