GLACIAL SEDIMENTS POSTER (24" x 36")
This full-color poster presents 13 original photographs of sediments from
the major glacial depositional environments. Six photographs of subglacial
and resedimented diamicton are depicted with various secondary weathering
zone features. Core samples of glaciofluvial sediments are presented
including one photo of a channel fill cross section in a vertical exposure.
Various glaciolacustrine sediments show various sedimentary structure
including massive, thinly-bedded, to laminated beds from planer to
undulatory. Photos include both vertical exposures and subsurface core
samples from (Rota) Sonic, SPT, and continuous samplers. The poster legend
includes detailed description of each sediment for use as an excellent
classroom tool.
