  • Glacial Terminology
    NRE 430 / EEB 489 D.R. Zak 2003 Lab 1 Glacial Terminology The last glacial advance in Michigan is known as the Wisconsin advance. The late Wisconsin period occurred between 25,000 and 10,000 years ago. Virtually all of Michigan's present surface landforms were shaped during this time. A. Glacial Materials Glacial Drift: material transported and deposited by glacial action. Note that most glacial features are recessional, i.e., they are formed by retreating ice. Materials deposited during glacial advance are usually overridden and destroyed or buried before the glacier has reached its maximum. Till: unstratified drift (e.g., material not organized into distinct layers), ice-transported, highly variable, may consist of any range of particles from clay to boulders. Ice-deposited material is indicated by random assemblage of particle sizes, such as clay, sand and cobbles mixed together. Ice-worked material is indicated by sharp-edged or irregular shaped pebbles and cobbles, formed by the coarse grinding action of the ice. Outwash: stratified drift (e.g., material organized into distinct horizontal layers or bands), water-transported, consists mainly of sand (fine to coarse) and gravel rounded in shape. Meltwater streams flowing away from glacier as it recedes carries particles that are sorted by size on deposition dependent upon the water flow velocity – larger particles are deposited in faster moving water. Water-deposited material is indicated by stratified layers of different sized sand particles and smooth rounded pebbles, consistent in size within each band. Water-worked material is indicated by smooth, rounded particles, formed by the fine grinding action of particles moved by water.

  • Geologic Site of the Month: Maine's Glacial Moraines: Living on the Edge
    Maine's Glacial Moraines: Living on the Edge Maine Geological Survey Maine Geologic Facts and Localities January, 2000 Maine's Glacial Moraines: Living on the Edge Text by Woodrow Thompson Maine Geological Survey, Department of Agriculture, Conservation & Forestry 1 Maine's Glacial Moraines: Living on the Edge Maine Geological Survey Introduction Toward the end of the "Ice Age," a glacier of vast proportions covered Maine. This was the Laurentide Ice Sheet, which advanced southward out of Canada about 25,000 years ago and remained here for nearly 15,000 years. The slowly flowing ice was thick enough to cover Maine's highest mountains. It swept away much of the evidence of earlier glaciations, eroding both the bedrock and previously existing sediment cover. Many glacial features that we see today were actually left behind during the final northward retreat of the ice sheet, when the pulverized rock debris was released from the melting ice. Even as the ice margin withdrew, internal flow within the glacier continued to transport its sediment load southward toward the edge of the ice sheet. Through a variety of processes, this dirty material was either released directly from the ice, forming a stony deposit called "till," or washed out of the glacier in meltwater streams. The water-laid sediments were deposited as layered accumulations in river valleys, lake basins, and Maine's coastal lowland. They include the majority of our sand and gravel deposits, and the finer silts and clays commonly found near the coast. Maine Geological Survey, Department of Agriculture, Conservation & Forestry 2 Maine's Glacial Moraines: Living on the Edge Maine Geological Survey Introduction The clearest markers of glacial retreat are ridges of sediment called "end moraines," which will be referred to here as simply "moraines" (Figure 1).

  • Rogen Moraine: an Example of Glacial Reshaping of Pre-Existing Landforms
    ARTICLE IN PRESS Quaternary Science Reviews 25 (2006) 362–389 Rogen moraine: an example of glacial reshaping of pre-existing landforms Per Mo¨llerà GeoBiosphere Science Centre/Quaternary Sciences, Lund University, So¨lvegatan 12, SE-22362 Lund, Sweden Received 23 May 2004; accepted 19 January 2005 Abstract Rogen moraine is widely distributed in the core areas of the former Scandinavian and Laurentide ice sheets. It is generally agreed upon that these gently arched, ice-flow transverse ridges can be used in reconstructions of paleo-ice-flow patterns and that they indicate a melted-bed or poly-thermal basal ice regime. However, the processes of ridge generation have been contentious. This study proposes a two-stage formation of Rogen moraine, based on detailed sedimentological and structural investigations in excavated trenches in a Rogen moraine landscape in the province of Dalarna, central Sweden. Field data suggest that Rogen moraine ridges are the reshaped remains of pre-existing transverse moraine ridges, originally deposited from ice-cored moraines in an ice-marginal zone. Due to back- and down-wasting of ice-cores, inter-ridge troughs were filled with debris flow and fluvial deposits, which after landscape inversion were transformed to areas of transverse and hummocky moraines. It is proposed that this primary landscape formation occurred during an Early Weichselian deglaciation. This relict landscape was later preserved beneath cold-based Mid- to Late-Weichselian ice sheet(s), which turned wet-based during the Preboreal deglaciation phase and re-moulded the precursor landforms into Rogen moraine. r 2005 Elsevier Ltd.

  • Glacial Outwash Process Group
    Glacial Outwash Process Group Berner’s Bay near Juneau, AK, Lace, Antler and Gilkey Rivers. Glacial outwash channels are alluvial channels with gradients less than 3 %. Being associated with glaciers these streams carry turbid water with extremely high sediment loads, except for peri-glacial subalpine cirque basin channels. Riparian areas are wide and may extend for more than one thousand meters in large braided outwash plain river systems. The GO process group includes the following individual channel types: Channel Type Name Label Former Label Glacial Alluvial Fan Channel GAF AF8 Glacial Outwash Estuarine Channel GES ES5 Large Braided Glacial Outwash Channel GOB GO3 Cirque Channel GOC GO5 Large Meandering Glacial Outwash Channel GOL GO2 Medium Glacial Outwash Channel GOM GO4 Small Glacial Outwash Channel GOS n/a Glacial Outwash Side Channel GSC GO1 Glacial Alluvial Cone Channel - GAF Geomorphic Setting: The GAF occurs on alluvial cone landforms in glacial drainage basins. At least 15 % of the drainage area must be covered by a glacier or permanent snow field to qualify as a GAF. Channel gradients are commonly greater than 6%.

  • Virtual Tour of Maine's Surficial Geology
    Maine Surficial Geology Maine Geological Survey Virtual Tour of Maine’s Surficial Geology Maine Geological Survey, Department of Agriculture, Conservation & Forestry 1 Maine Surficial Geology Maine Geological Survey Introduction Maine's bedrock foundation is covered in many places by surficial earth materials such as sand, gravel, silt, and clay. These sediments were transported and deposited by glacial ice, water, and wind. Many of them formed during the "Ice Age", which occurred between about two million and ten thousand years ago. Others were laid down more recently in stream, shoreline, and wetland environments. The colors on the map represent various kinds of surficial sediments. We will see examples of the most common types in the following photos. Maine Geological Survey Maine Geological Survey, Department of Agriculture, Conservation & Forestry 2 Maine Surficial Geology Maine Geological Survey Sand and Gravel Maine Geological Survey Surficial geology is important to Maine's citizens for economic and environmental reasons. Most of the sand and gravel used in construction, concrete, and sanding roads in winter was originally deposited by streams from melting glacial ice. Gravel pits are often located in these glacial deposits. The deeper parts of many sand and gravel deposits contain large quantities of water and are classified as aquifers. Yields from some aquifers are so large that they can supply water to municipal wells and the bottled water industry. Maine Geological Survey, Department of Agriculture, Conservation & Forestry 3 Maine Surficial Geology Maine Geological Survey Planning Projects Maine Geological Survey Information about the type and thickness of surficial sediments is used in planning highway and building projects such as the new bridge across the Kennebec River in Augusta (shown here in an early stage of construction).

  • Glacial Geology
    Wisconsin Department of Transportation Geotechnical Manual Chapter 2 Geology of Wisconsin Section 3 Glacial Geology Glaciation has had a pronounced effect on the landscape, subsurface strata, and soils of the state. This section will examine the occurrences, movements, extent, and impacts of glaciation on the physical surface of Wisconsin. A number of terms and definitions associated with glaciers and glacial geology will also be presented. 2-3.1 Terms and Definitions An understanding of the following list of terms is important to understand glacial history and processes: Glacier A large ice mass flowing due to its own weight and gravity. Continental glaciers covered thousands of square miles of the earth’s surface and were 1 to 2 miles thick in some areas. Drift A general term for glacially deposited material. Till A heterogeneous mixture of soil and rock fragments carried and deposited by a glacier. End Moraine A distinct ridge of till accumulated at the line of maximum advance of a glacier. Also called a terminal moraine. Recessional Distinct ridges of till formed behind end moraines as the glacier receeded. These Moraine features mark positions of glacial stagnation or renewed advance. Ground Till deposited in an indistinct manner as the glacier receded. Often Moraine consists of a relatively thin blanket of material marked by low hills and swales. Glacial Lakes Lakes that were formed along the front of a glacier due to the general contour of the land and the blockage of normal drainage channels. These lakes disappeared as the glaciers receded. Lacustrine Material deposited in glacial lakes forming the bed of those lakes.
