The Flood/Post-Flood Boundary (Comment And Reply), Marcus R. Ross

First paragraph: Michael Oard’s recent article on the Flood/post-Flood boundary consists of two parts: the first is response to my earlier paper on utilizing mammalian biostratigraphy in evaluating post-Flood boundary locations, which found placement of this boundary at or near the Pliocene/Pleistocene boundary untenable; the second part is a set of disparate observations placed in support of a high post-Flood boundary placed at variable locations in the “Late Cenozoic”.

Central New York Varve Chronology: A Suggestion For Quaternary Geologists, Thomas Bradley Walker Mar 2010

Central New York Varve Chronology: A Suggestion For Quaternary Geologists, Thomas Bradley Walker

Thomas Bradley Walker

Work done to build a chronology of deglaciation using varves has been the focus of a number of researchers in New England for many years. The locations employed to build their timeline have been quite useful to date. However, New England is not the only place in the Northeast conducive to studying the last deglaciation of North America. The discovery of a set of ice proximal varves in an ancient glacial lake, now a swamp, in Oswego County, central New York, has shown that some locations outside of New England would be suitable for similar studies. The land having been …
