Figure 11. Photos of apparent varve sediments retrieved in the Orient Point boring (described in Table 3) 

 drilled into the Orient Point buried channel. These suggest a major glacial lake occupied the 

 Long Island Sound-Block Island Sound region during Pleistocene time. Each pair of light and 

 dark lines represents a summer and winter episode of lacustrine deposition.
