Volume and routing of late-glacial runoff from the southern Laurentide ice sheet / James T. Teller.
Title: | Volume and routing of late-glacial runoff from the southern Laurentide ice sheet / James T. Teller. |
Author(s): | Teller, James T. |
Date: | 1990. |
In: | Quaternary Research. (1990.), Vol. 34(1) (1990) |
Abstract: | Volume and routing of meltwater helped shape land's surface and played part in evolution of late-glacial climate. Computerized model was prepared to quantify meltwater generation from seven drainage areas along southern side of ice sheet at 500-year time slices between 14 and 8 ka BP. Nearly all waters reaching oceans flowed through St Lawrence, Hudson, or Mississippi river valleys. Estimates are presented. |
