MARC recordGlacially-crushed quartz grains in Late Quaternary deposits in the Virunga Mountains, Rwanda - indicators of wind transport from the north? / William C. Mahaney.
| Title: | Glacially-crushed quartz grains in Late Quaternary deposits in the Virunga Mountains, Rwanda - indicators of wind transport from the north? / William C. Mahaney. |
| Author(s): | Mahaney, William C. |
| Date: | 1990. |
| In: | Boreas. (1990.), Vol. 19(1) (1990) |
| Abstract: | Most likely source of glacial grains is Ruwenzori Massif, 150 km north. This first evidence for long-distance aeolian transported glacially-crushed sand grains in these mountains is discussed and evaluated. |
| Notes: | Boreas. Vol. 19(1) :81-89 (1990). |
| Keywords: | 551.332.2 -- Drift, glacial. Deposits. 551.332 -- Glacial deposition. E7 -- Glaciology: glacial geology and ice ages. (67) -- Equatorial and central African states. |
