Shilts, Chief¹ Stratigraphic nomenclature follows that of Hansel and Johnson (1996) for Wisconsin and younger deposits and Willman et al. (1975) for deposits older than Wisconsin Episode; within each unit, the components are listed in order of decreasing abundance.² Stratified deposits are those formed, arranged, or laid down in layers or strata.³ Diamicton is a name for a unsorted or poorly sorted, sedimentary deposit that contains a wide range of particle sizes, such as a till that contains clay, silt, sand, gravel, cobbles and boulders.4 Geosol is a formal term for an ancient soil profile, which consists of one or more soil horizons, usually buried, that developed through weathering of deposits when they were exposed at a former land surface.ReferencesHansel, A.K., and W.H.
