Autumn Acorns by Patricia Overmoyer Our Mission: To protect the habitat, open space, and farmland of the Genesee Valley region. Through Genesee Valley Conservancy, the community has protected 20,600 acres of unique habitats, productive farmland, and scenic open space in the Genesee Valley since 1990. #GeneseeValley100 I am thrilled to present our second iteration of the Genesee Valley 100. Last year, we presented 100 original paintings inspired by the Genesee Valley. This year, we present 100 photographs taken in the Genesee Valley. This collection of photographs, from 100 photographers, told only that their image must be taken in the Genesee Valley, represents the diverse landscape found here. With this project, we hope to propel appreciation and conservation of the Genesee Valley forward. Clean air, water, and a vibrant agricultural economy all depend on protecting the land.

  • 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).

This forest community type is rare statewide and extremely rare locally, and harbors a unique assemblage of uncommon plant species. (Image by the Bruce Gilman). Acknowledgments: For over a decade, the Ontario County Planning Department has supported a working partnership between local towns and the Department of Environmental Conservation and Horticulture at Finger Lakes Community College that involves field research, ground truthing and digital mapping of natural land cover and cultural land use patterns. Previous studies have been completed for the Canandaigua Lake watershed, the southern Honeoye Valley, the Honeoye Lake watershed, the complete Towns of Canandaigua, Gorham, Richmond and Victor, and the woodlots, wetlands and riparian corridors in the Towns of Seneca, Phelps and Geneva. This report summarizes the latest land use/land cover study conducted in the Town of Bristol. The final report would not have been completed without the vital assistance of Terry Saxby of the Ontario County Planning Department. He is gratefully thanked for his assistance with landowner information, his patience as the fieldwork was slowly completed, and his noteworthy help transcribing the field maps to geographic information system (GIS) shape files.

  • Eurypterid Horizons and the Stratigraphy of the Upper
    D-l Trip D EURYPTERID HORIZONS AND THE STRATIGRAPHY OF THE UPPER SILURIAN AND ?LOWER DEVONIAN OF WESTERN NEW YORK STATE Samuel J. Ciurca, Jr. Rochester, New York Introduction The Upper Silurian rocks of New York State comprise an interesting variety of distinct lithologies, e.g. red and green shales, some sandstone, limestone and dolostone, halite, gypsum, and anhydrite. While these rocks are of economic importance because of the halite and gypsum deposits they contain, much of current geologic interest in these strata is concerned with their sedimentology, correlation, and more recently, the paleontology of certain well-known fossiliferous units (see, for example, Treesch 1972, Rickard 1969, Berry and Boucot 1970, Berdan 1972). Often overlooked is the unusual eurypterid and scorpion faunas which these generally "unfossiliferous" rocks contain. The purpose of this article and associated field trip is to familiarize the reader with the Upper Silurian and ?Lower Devonian rocks of the Genesee region, particularly the Bertie Group, and to examine outcrops of these rocks at loealities which have yielded eurypterid remains. Stratigraphy and Paleontology The following rock units, in ascending stratigraphic order, constitute the Upper Silurian (Cay~gan Series) and ?Lower Devonian (Helderbergian Series) of Western New York (Fig. 1). The lowest Cayugan unit is the Pittsford Shale (local member or facies of the Vernon Fm.), succeeded by the Vernon Fm., Syracuse Fm., Camillus Fm., Fort Hill .Waterlime (new), Oatka Shy. Ds., members of the Fiddlers Green Fm. (formerly Falkirk), Scajaquada Fm., Williamsville Waterlime, Cobleskill Fm. (formerly Akron), Honeoye Falls Fm. Recent stratigraphic studies which at least mention various portions of the Upper Silurian of Western New York include Rickard 1962, 1969, Fisher 1960, Leutze 1959.
