In general, the soils underneath the Greenway tend to be gravelly or silty clay loam. The entire trail is fairly level, with the majority of slopes being less than five percent. A complete, narrative description of the soils can be found in Appendix F Natural Resources Flora A complete biological inventory of Greenway property is not presently available (October 2013). However, SUNY Geneseo botany students began to inventory flora within sections of the corridor. The New York State Natural Heritage Program has targeted the GVG for a Natural Heritage inventory in 2014.

  • Genesee Valley Glacial and Postglacial Geology from 50000
    Genesee Valley Glacial and Postglacial Geology from 50,000 Years Ago to the Present: A Selective Annotated Review Richard A. Young, Department of Geological Sciences, SUNY, Geneseo, NY 14454 Introduction The global chronology for The Pleistocene Epoch, or “ice age,” has been significantly revised during the last three decades (Alley and Clark, 1999) as a result of the extended and more accurate data provided by deep sea drilling projects, ice core studies from Greenland and Antarctica (Andersen et al. 2006; Svensson et al. 2008), oxygen isotope studies of marine sediments, and climatic proxy data from lake cores, peat bogs, and cave stalactites. These new data have improved our ability to match the Earth’s Milankovitch orbital cycles to the improved ice core and radiometric chronologies (ages based on radiocarbon, U-Th, U-Pb). However, the Milankovitch theory has recently been the subject of renewed controversy, and not all cyclical climatic phenomena are directly reconcilable with Milankovitch’s original ideas (Ridgwell et al., 1999; Ruddiman, 2006). Overall, it is evident that there must have been as many as 20 or more glacial cycles in the last 2.5 million years, not all of which necessarily resulted in the expansion of large ice sheets as far south as the United States-Canadian border. The International Union of Geological Sciences recently adopted a change for the Pliocene-Pleistocene boundary, extending the beginning of the Pleistocene Epoch back from 1.8 to 2.588 million years Before Present (BP). The average length of the most recent glacial- interglacial cycles (also known as “Stages”) is on the order of 100,000 years, with 10,000 to 15,000 years being the approximate length of the interglacial warm episodes between the longer cold cycles (also known as cold stadials and warm interstadials).

  • Upper Devonian Depositional and Biotic Events in Western New York
    MIDDLE- UPPER DEVONIAN DEPOSITIONAL AND BIOTIC EVENTS IN WESTERN NEW YORK Gordon C. Baird, Dept. of Geosciences, SUNY-Fredonia, Fredonia, NY 14063; D. Jeffrey Over, Dept. of Geological Sciences, SUNY-Geneseo, Geneseo, NY 14454; William T. Kirch gasser, Dept. of Geology, SUNY-Potsdam, Potsdam, NY 13676; Carlton E. Brett, Dept. of Geology, Univ. of Cincinnati, 500 Geology/Physics Bldg., Cincinnati, OH 45221 INTRODUCTION The Middle and Late Devonian succession in the Buffalo area includes numerous dark gray and black shale units recording dysoxic to near anoxic marine substrate conditions near the northern margin of the subsiding Appalachian foreland basin. Contrary to common perception, this basin was often not stagnant; evidence of current activity and episodic oxygenation events are characteristic of many units. In fact, lag deposits of detrital pyrite roofed by black shale, erosional runnels, and cross stratified deposits of tractional styliolinid grainstone present a counter intuitive image of episodic, moderate to high energy events within the basin. We will discuss current-generated features observed at field stops in the context of proposed models for their genesis, and we will also examine several key Late Devonian bioevents recorded in the Upper Devonian stratigraphic succession. In particular, two stops will showcase strata associated with key Late Devonian extinction events including the Frasnian-Famennian global crisis. Key discoveries made in the preparation of this field trip publication, not recorded in earlier literature,

  • The Lost City of Tryon Trail Is an Approved Historic Trail Of
    The Lost City of Tryon Trail is an approved Historic Trail of the Boy Scouts of America and is administered by the Seneca Waterways Council Scouting Historical Society. It offers hikers a fantastic opportunity to experience a geographic location of enduring historic significance in Upstate New York. 2018 EDITION Seneca Waterways Council Scouting Historical Society 2320 Brighton-Henrietta Town Line Road, Rochester, NY 14623 version 2.0 rdc 10/2018 A Nice Hike For Any Season Introduction The Irondequoit Bay area was once at the crossroads of travel and commerce for Native Americans. It was the home of the Algonquin and later the Seneca, visited by a plethora of famous explorers, soldiers, missionaries and pioneers. This guidebook provides only a small glimpse of the wonders of this remote wilderness prior to 1830. The Lost City of Tryon Trail takes you through a historic section of Brighton, New York, in Monroe County’s Ellison Park. The trail highlights some of the remnants of the former City of Tryon (portions of which were located within the present park) as well as other historic sites. It was also the location of the southernmost navigable terminus of Irondequoit Creek via Irondequoit Bay, more commonly known as “The Landing.” The starting and ending points are at the parking lot on North Landing Road, opposite the house at #225. Use of the Trail The Lost City of Tryon Trail is located within Ellison Park and is open for use in accordance with park rules and regulations. Seasonal recreation facilities, water, and comfort stations are available. See the park’s page on the Monroe County, NY website for additional information.
