The Marine geology of the inner Scotian Shelf off the south shore, Nova Scotia

The innermost 10 km of the South Shore coast is described, showing that bothbedrock and surficial geology are a continuation of that seen on land. Theoffshore geomorphology is essentially an extension of the Maritime peneplane, which has been modified to produce overdeepened basins, particularly ingranites. The bedrock surface is cut by sinuous, discontinuous, and anostomosing chaneels up to 60 m deep. A comprehensive account of late Wisconsinan and early Holocene stratigraphy and sedimentation in this coastaland inner shelf environment has been presented based on seismic profiles and the detailed study of sediments and fauna in 20 piston cores.
