  • Pleistocene Multi-Glacier Hypothesis Supported by Newly Exposed Glacial Sediments, South Twin Island, the Bronx, New York
    111 PLEISTOCENE MULTI-GLACIER HYPOTHESIS SUPPORTED BY NEWLY EXPOSED GLACIAL SEDIMENTS, SOUTH TWIN ISLAND, THE BRONX, NEW YORK John E. Sanders, Charles Merguerian, Jessica Levine, and Paul M. Carter Geology Department, 114 Hofstra University Hempstead, NY 11550-1090 INTRODUCTION On 02 November 1996, during Hofstra University Geology Department's biannual Introductory Geology field trip to Pelham Bay Park in The Bronx, CM noticed that the intense storm of 19 October 1996 had undercut the coastal bluff at the south end of Soutb Twin Island, exposing a brownish till beneath previously visible reddish-brown till. Subsequent to this short- but enlightening large-class visit, we revisited the site on 05 and 12 November 1996 to excavate-, clean up-, and sample a 2-m-high face that exposed four layers of Pleistocene strata, the lowest of which was found to rest on striated bedrock of the Hartland Formation. Based on our previous studies of ice-eroded features on the bedrock here and elsewhere in southeastern New York, we found evidence of three glaciations, with ice flow from the NNE (G lacier I of Table 1), from the NNW (Glaciers IT and/or m, which created the spectacular set of parallel striae oriented N32°W-S32°E at South Twin Island), and from the NNE (Glacier TV). We thought the storm and our shovels had exposed Till TV . The mineral composition- and color oftbe +0.5-phi fraction of the Pleistocene materials from the newly exposed section, however seems to indicate otherwise. Only two contrasting suites are present in four distinct layers: (A) a reddish-brown layer in which well-rounded reddish-brown siltstone rock fragments predominate, and (B) three other layers.

  • Difference Between Staten Island and Long Island Staten Island
    Difference Between Staten Island and Long Island www.differencebetween.com Key Difference – Staten Island vs Long Island Staten Island and Long Island are two islands that belong to the state of New York. Staten Island is one of the five boroughs of New York, and Long Island is an island that begins at the New York Harbor. Long Island, the largest island in the contiguous United States, is also the most populated island in any US territory whereas Staten Island is one of the least populated areas in the state.This is the key difference between Staten Island and Long Island. Staten Island Staten Island is one of the five boroughs (county-level administrative divisions) of New York City in the state of New York. It includes the south most part of the state of New York and the city of New York. Although Staten Island is the third largest borough of New York, with an area of 150 km2, it is the least populated of the five boroughs. It is also sometimes called as the forgotten borough. Staten Island belongs to the Richmond country. Figure 01: Aerial View of Verrazano-Narrows Bridge, which connects Staten Island and Brooklyn Staten Island is also the only borough of New York with a population of non- Hispanic White majority. The North Shore of the island is the most urban part of the island while the West Shore is the most industrial and the least populated area of the island. Staten Island is connected to Manhattan by Staten Island Ferry, which is a free commuter ferry, and to Brooklyn by the Verrazano- Narrows Bridge.

    10 Krey Boulevard Rensselaer, NY 12144 December 9, 2013 Re: NYISO 2013 Congestion Assessment and Resource Integration Studies Report Dear NYISO Economic Planning Interested Parties: On November 19, 2013 the New York Independent System Operator, Inc. (NYISO) Board of Directors approved the attached 2013 Congestion Assessment and Resource Integration Studies Report (2013 CARIS Report). The 2013 CARIS Report was developed in compliance with the NYISO’s Tariff, specifically Attachment Y of the NYISO’s Open Access Transmission Tariff (OATT). Market participants actively engaged in the development of the 2013 CARIS model assumptions, the review of analysis results, and the review and approval of the final 2013 CARIS Report. The 2013 CARIS Report presents the impact of historic and projected congestion on the New York Control Area electric system and the potential benefits to New York consumers of generic generation, transmission, demand response, and energy efficiency solutions. The impact of historic and projected congestion is determined in accordance with the applicable provisions of the NYISO’s OATT, as are the potential benefits of the generic solutions. The NYISO’s OATT requires that New York system-wide production cost savings be the sole metric for the evaluation of the economic benefit of projects in the CARIS process. Under this tariff- prescribed process, a project’s projected benefits are, in turn, compared to the cost of that project to produce a benefit-cost ratio. The time-horizon over which project benefits are measured is limited to ten years. Analysis of additional metrics such as capacity market savings and environmental benefits are included in the 2013 CARIS Report, for informational purposes only.
