The purpose of this dissertation is to determine the stratigraphic and sedimentary environments of these deposits and to examine the foraminiferal succession into the strait after deglaciation.

Data digitized by the USGS and partners were visually compared to the source data, and corrected. Where appropriate, data were tested for completeness using MS Excel. Locations checked using GIS. Logical_Consistency_Report: Data fall within normal ranges for the given parameters. Completeness_Report: Numeric data completely digitized; data not digitized include foraminifera Positional_Accuracy: Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy: Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report: Station positions were determined by radar fix off known land points. Because of the narrowness of the strait (less than 24 kilometers) position was within +/- 0.3 kilometers. Positions given to minute-tenths. Vertical_Positional_Accuracy: Vertical_Positional_Accuracy_Report: Water depths not recorded in report. Subsample depths given to nearest millimeter. Lineage: Process_Step: Process_Description: Sub-samples were wet sieved through zero-phi and four-phi screens. Sand-size distribution was determined by settling tube; silts and clays by pipette analysis. Carbonate carbon and total carbon were determined by using a LECO induction furnace and a carbon determinator. For inclusion in usSEABED, textural classes were recalculated to include the gravel fraction in the percentages.
