Glacier dynamics and the development of glacial landforms in the eastern Puget lowland, Washington
(1984)
In the Late Pleistocene, the Puget lobe of the Cordilleran ice sheet covered the Puget lowland in western Washington to an average depth of 1000 m in the Skykomish-Snoqualmie region and abutted against the western front of the Cascade Range.Reconstructions of the extent, altitude, and mass balance of the Puget lobe lead to ...
Petrology and structure of the pre-Tertiary rocks of Lummi and Eliza Islands, Washington
(1980)
Exposed on Lummi Island are two groups of pre-Tertiary rocks
everywhere in fault contact with each other: a 1300 meter thick
section of turbidite sandstone and mudstone, and rocks largely of
igneous affinity. The latter rocks consist of pillow lavas with
associated radiolarian chert dated as Middle to early Late Jurassic,
and, ...
Depositional environments, basin evolution and tectonic significance of the Eocene Chumstick Formation, Cascade Range, Washington
(1988)
The Chumstick Formation represents a Paleogene, humid-tropical, alluvial-fan system which filled a wrench-fault basin in Washington State. Chumstick deposition was characterized by stream-flow processes; low ($$1 m/k.y.) accumulation of sublithic feldspathic sediments; and extensive vegetation which imparted bank stability ...
