Record #122277:
Late Pleistocene glaciation of Mono Basin, California / Marcus I. Bursik, Alan R. Gillespie.
Title: | Late Pleistocene glaciation of Mono Basin, California / Marcus I. Bursik, Alan R. Gillespie. |
Author(s): | Bursik, Marcus I. Gillespie, Alan R. |
Date: | 1993. |
In: | Quaternary Research. (1993.), Vol. 39(1) (1993) |
Abstract: | Aims were: to characterize weathering and geomorphic features of Late Pleistocene moraines in piedmont regions of basin; to correlate moraines between canyons, thus demonstrating distinct consistent sequence of glacial events; to suggest possibilities for constraining ages of moraines by examining volcanic, lacustrine and glacial records together; and to make comparison of latest Pleistocene glacial record and record of fluctuations in level of Pleistocene Lake Russell. |
Notes: | Quaternary Research. Vol. 39(1) :24-35 (1993). |
