Raised shoreline features of various kinds at nume­ On this evidence he suggested the pattern of post­ rous localities in the Burin Peninsula and Hermitage glacial emergence shown in Figure 1A, which was sub­ area of south central Newfoundland (Fig. 1), have been sequently adopted by FLINT (1971, Fig. 13 — 10, p. 360). noted by several authors (JEWELL, 1939; WHITE, 1939; More recently, WIGHTMAN and COOKE (1978), in a re- VAN ALSTINE, 1948; WALTHIER, 1948; POTTER, 1949; WIDMER, 1950; BRADLEY, 1954; JENNESS, 1960; GRANT, 1975), and it is clear from their brief descrip­ tions that more than one open episode of marine erosion and deposition was involved in the formation of these features. It is evident that a distinction must be made between marine benches, which predate at least one period of widespread glaciation because they are cut in bedrock and overlain by glacial deposits, and beach deposits and terraces cut in unconsolidated materials which are of late- or post-glacial age. However, prior to our investigations (TUCKER 1976, 1979 a and b; TUCKER and McCANN, 1980; LECKIE, 1979; LECKIE and McCANN, in press) there had been no concerted effort to measure the elevations and examine the mor­ phologic and stratigraphie relations of the various shoreline fragments with a view to elucidating the rela­ tionships between former sea levels and ice limits throughout this part of Newfoundland. Of the earlier descriptions of raised shorelines the most complete relate to the Hermitage area, where WID- MER (1950) made excellent observations of glacial and related phenomena. He recognized that "there are probably two sets of strandlines due to two different sets of conditions. Some of the occurrences are proba­ bly Sangamon in age while the remainder are probably late Wisconsin in age" (WIDMER, 1950, p. 70), but Wid- mer found no evidence of tilting of the strandlines. He correctly assigned the origin of terraces and other fea­ tures in the northern Bay d'Espoir area (Fig. 2) to the existence of a glacially dammed lake (LECKIE and McCANN, in press) and described the evidence of a late phase of valley glaciation. However, his interpretation of late-glacial raised shoreline features along the south­ ern (Fortune Bay) coast of the Hermitage area was severely constrained by his adherence to the view that the zero isobase of post-glacial uplift lay north of the region (DALY, 1921 ; FLINT, 1940, 1947). This led Wid- FlGURE 1.

  • Glaciomarine Deltas of Maine and Their Relation to Late Pleistocene-Holocene Crustal Movements
    Maine Geological Survey Neotcctonics of Maine 1989 Glaciomarine Deltas of Maine and Their Relation to Late Pleistocene-Holocene Crustal Movements Woodrow B. Thompson Maine Geological Survey Augusta, Maine 04333 Kristine J . Crossen Geology Department University ofAlaska Anchorage, Alaska 99507 Harold W. Borns, Jr. Institute for Quaternary Studies University of Maine Orono, Maine 04469 Bjorn G. Andersen University of Oslo Oslo, Norway ABSTRACT The deglaciation of southern Maine in late Wisconsinan time was accompanied by marine submergence of the isostatically-depressed coastal lowland. Glacial meltwater streams deposited over 100 Gilbert-type deltas into the sea during the transgressive phase of submergence, between about 14,000 and 13,000 yr B.P. These deltas were deposited either in contact with the ice margin or very close to it. They are classified into four categories based on depositional environment: ice-contact deltas (39% ), esker-fed ice-contact deltas (30% ), leeside deltas (26% ), and distal outwash deltas (5% ). Most of the deltas for which subsurface data are available accumulated in water less than 80 m deep, and the ice-contact deltas are believed to have formed along a grounded tidewater-glacier margin. Bedrock strike ridges and other hills slowed the retreat of the ice margin, causing brief stillstands during which deltas were deposited adjacent to these topographic highs. The sequence of glaciomarine deltas in Maine probably formed when the transgressing sea had reached its maximum depth and relative sea level was beginning to fall in response to isostatic crustal uplift. The elevations of the contacts between the topset and foreset beds of 65 deltas in Maine and New Brunswick were measured in order to locate the positions of sea level to which the deltas were graded.

  • Deglacial Patterns and Ice-Sheet Dynamics in the Fjords of Southern Nordland, Norway
    NORWEGIAN JOURNAL OF GEOLOGY Vol 98 Nr. 4 https://dx.doi.org/10.17850/njg98-4-07 Deglacial patterns and ice-sheet dynamics in the fjords of southern Nordland, Norway Fredrik Høgaas1, Lars Olsen1, Lina Gislefoss1, Oddvar Longva1, Anders Romundset1 & Harald Sveian1 1Geological Survey of Norway, P.O. Box 6315 Torgarden, NO–7491 Trondheim, Norway. E-mail corresponding author (Fredrik Høgaas): [email protected] This paper presents results from glacial geomorphology mapping in and adjacent to Velfjorden and Ursfjorden in the southern Nordland region of Norway. Submarine and terrestrial landforms were studied and mapped using high-resolution multibeam bathymetric and airborne LiDAR data, in addition to reconnaissance in the field. The work unites ice-marginal deposits related to the established Tautra and Tjøtta glacial events which took place during the Younger Dryas (YD) chronozone. In Ursfjorden, an outlet glacier deposited a c. 100 m-high terminal moraine, whereas moraine ridges and a large sedimentary wedge were deposited in the inner part of Velfjorden. Highly elongated subglacial bedforms located inside the ice-marginal landforms reveal that the fjords were occupied by fast-flowing ice streams during YD. Eighteen new radiocarbon dates from the region, along with twelve recalibrated dates from previous studies, provide time-constraints for ice-sheet configuration and dynamics during deglaciation. Radiocarbon dates suggest that the outer coastal islands became ice-free prior to 14 cal ka BP. Glacially overridden shell-rich units dated to the Allerød Interstadial indicate that the YD ice sheet readvanced at least 5 km before depositing the terminal moraine in Ursfjorden. The ages of shells found near the distinct, regionally correlative, YD raised shoreline indicate that the glacial readvance culminated around early to mid-YD.
