The Laurentide and Innuitian ice sheets during the Last Glacial Maximum

TL;DR: The Late Wisconsinan advance of the Laurentide Ice Sheet started from a Middle Wisconsinan interstadial minimum 27−30 14 C ka BP when the ice margin approximately followed the boundary of the Canadian Shield.
Journal ArticleDOI

A conceptual model of the deglaciation of Atlantic Canada

TL;DR: In this paper, a conceptual model for the deglaciation of Atlantic Canada in which a role is played by ice streams is presented, where a major ice stream in the Laurentian Channel, secondary streams in the Bay of Fundy/Gulf of Maine, Trinity Trough and Notre Dame Channel, and lesser ice streams elsewhere.
Journal ArticleDOI

Glacial landforms on German Bank, Scotian Shelf: evidence for Late Wisconsinan ice‐sheet dynamics and implications for the formation of De Geer moraines

TL;DR: In this article, multibeam sonar imagery of subglacial, ice-marginal and glaciomarine landforms on German Bank, Scotian Shelf, provides evidence of the pattern of glacial-dynamic events in the eastern Gulf of Maine.
Journal ArticleDOI

Late Wisconsinan glacial landsystems on Atlantic Canadian shelves: New evidence from multibeam and single-beam sonar data

TL;DR: In this paper, multibeam sonar surveys in the past decade, augmented by single-beam data from the OLEX charting system, reveal landsystems on Atlantic Canadian shelves that are diagnostic of Late Wisconsinan ice-sheet dynamics.
Journal ArticleDOI

Submerged early Holocene coastal and terrestrial landforms on the inner shelves of Atlantic Canada

TL;DR: This paper identified a situation within which preservation has been relatively good: large coastal lakes that existed for many thousands of years before being connected to the ocean by rising sea level in the mid-Holocene.
