Pleistocene Geology of Moravia Quadrangle 
Bodies of water represented by these deltas — their chronology 
— overflow channels previously investigated — control exercised 
by the Cayuga lobe — description of each lake stage represented 
— smaller deltas — other lake phenomena — post-glacial tilt- 
ing — alluvial fans 
Glacial Erosion: 
General evidence of — profound erosion in Owasco valley — con- 
ditions governing ice-erosion in valleys — transverse and 
longitudinal valleys — examples of each — from Locke north- 
ward — figures of disturbed residual rock — other possible ex- 
planation for the disturbed area. Analysis of erosion in cross- 
section of a longitudinal valley 
Striae : 
Many striated surfaces — usually represent final movements of 
the declining ice — general direction of ice-motion was from 
the northwest — one exception — topographic control — com- 
posite readings — striae from standpoint of range in altitude. . . . 
Ice-front Channels: 
Two types: topographic and torrential — description and exam- 
ples of each type 
Ice-Walled Channels: 
The work of Gilbert and of Fairchild. Conditions governing the 
formation of such channels — examples on Moravia quad- 
rangle. 
Pre-Wisconsin Drift: 
Lack of positive evidence — theoretical reasons for its existence 
here — geographical distribution of old drift — effects of ice- 
erosion — “through ’’ valleys — evidence of pre-Wisconsin ice- 
front lakes. How an ice-invasion may affect a former till 
sheet; eroded in longitudinal valleys, protected in transverse 
valleys — effects of pressure. Possible suggestions of old drift 
found in well records
