PRACTICAL
HANDBOOK FOR SOIL AND STRATIGRAPHIC ANALYSIS OF GLACIAL SUCCESSIONS:
FOR ENVIRONMENTAL AND ENGINEERING PROJECTS
Offers quick-reference
for use with the Field Guide in glaciated areas. The Practical Handbook
discusses the descriptive elements of glacial sediments and
stratigraphic sequences for environmental and geotechnical projects. The
Practical Handbook is easy to use in the field, but is also intended to
discuss the purpose of sediment descriptions in the context of glacial
depositional environments and secondary weathering processes. It is
filled with photos showing examples of glacial deposits from exposures
and core samples of various depositional environments, some altered by
secondary weathering processes. The Practical Handbook is recommended
with the first purchase of a Field Guide.
