Purpose
|
|
Establish geologic character and units for mapping beach
|
|
and nearshore sand units in geologic map being developed for
|
|
Berrien County, MI identified from onshore and offshore mapping.
|
|
Identify, define and field check, geologic units that should extend
|
|
across the shoreline.
|
|
|
Information to be Derived
|
|
Location, thickness and character of beach and nearshore deposits to complete surficial geologic map
|
|
|
Summary
|
|
Visited 31 coastal sites and
|
|
obtained 52 global positioning system (GPS) fixes
|
|
on locations observations and geologic boundaries.
|
|
|
Notes
|
|
National coordination task in Regional Synthesis Project
|
|
(Berrien Co. Geologic Mapping Project,
|
|
also preliminary coastal observations for coastal and nearshore shoals
|
|
mapping in Northern Lake Michigan.
