..., Banks Island in the Northwest Territories, Fort Selkirk in the Yukon, and Merritt in British Columbia, bring to five the number of early Quaternary sequences in Canada that have yielded a record of glacial sediments deposited during the Matuyama chron, and hence record glacial events prior to the last...

... ( Dominguez et al. 1992 ). A slightly finer grain-size range (i.e. fine to medium) characterizes ridges on Merritt Island, Florida, USA. In this location, sands are also locally shell-rich, and dissolution and reprecipitation of carbonate-rich shell material appears to cement and partially protect...

... are no longer available. On M ILROW, Merritt (1969b, 1970, 1971) installed pressure gages in deep water at various depths and ranges near the island, but none in freshwater. The deep-water results did, however, give valuable guidance in designing a shallow-water experiment for CANNIKIN. THE EXPERIMENT...

Phillips Abstract Three-dimensional modelling of superficial geology is challenging, particularly for complex industrial sites such as the Sellafield nuclear site, Cumbria, UK. A lithostratigraphic approach is sufficient to show distribution of key...

The Beaver Island basement drill hole is just west of the northward extension of the Mid-Michigan gravity and magnetic anomaly which has been correlated with Keweenawan igneous activity by Hinze and Merritt (1969) and Oray et...
