Glossary_ID,Definition
GLO01|Plane or irregular surface between two types or ages of rock; outcrop of this plane on the mapped surface is a line. Examples are bedding planes separating distinct strata, intrusive contacts, and unconformities
GLO02|Geomorphic boundary between beach and adjacent upland; may be the boundary between the beach face and adjacent bluff or the crest of the berm that separates the beach face and adjacent back beach. Approximately equivalent to mean higher high water line
GLO03|Boundary between water and land; for tidal waters, position varies with tide stage
GLO04|Shoreline formed at an earlier time when water levels were higher or lower than at present
GLO05|Edge of mapped area
GLO06|Ill-defined boundary of map unit; in this report, used for limits of older deposits exposed on the beach
GLO07|Planar or nearly planar surface that visibly separates each successive layer of stratified rock from the preceding or following layer, representing an original surface of deposition
GLO08|Bedding with physical evidence at the outcrop that it is upright, that is, not overturned. Evidence may be (but is not limited to) cross-bedding, scour and fill structures, load casts, or repeated graded bedding
GLO09|Planar or sub-panar arrangement of textural or structural features in a rock or deposit, especially planar fabric defined by fissility, preferred orientation of mineral cleavage planes, preferred orientation of inequant grain shapes, and (or) compositional banding. Generally formed after deposition
GLO10|Location, on map, of an interpreted vertical or steeply-dipping section
GLO11|Planar fracture, crack, or parting in rock, without observable displacement parallel to itself
GLO12|A line, which when moved parallel to itself, traces out a folded surface
GLO13|Parallel or subparallel lineations on a fault surface; lineations defined by grooves, ridges, and (or) striations
GLO14|Radiocarbon age analysis
GLO15|An age unit of one thousand years (kilo-annum)
GLO16|Determined using relevant observations and scientific judgement; therefore, one can be reasonably confident in the scientific credibility of this interpretation
GLO17|Not determined using relevant observations and scientific judgement; therefore, one cannot be reasonably confident in the scientific credibility of this interpretation

GLO24|Qualifier for GeneralLithology: The term and definition adequately characterize the overall lithology of the map unit.
GLO25|Qualifier for GeneralLithology: The term and definition generally characterize the overall lithology of the map unit, but there are one or more significant minor lithologies that are not described by the selected term.
GLO26|Qualifier for GeneralLithology: The lithology of this map unit is not adequately classifiable using this list of terms and definitions, but the term selected is the best available. Or this map unit is insufficiently known to confidently assign a GeneralLithology term.
GLO27|Modern, unconsolidated material known to have human-related origin.
GLO28|Unconsolidated material deposited by a stream or other body of running water, as a sorted or semi-sorted sediment in the bed of the stream or on its floodplain or delta, or as a cone or fan at the base of a mountain slope.  Grain size varies from clay to gravel.
GLO29|A sediment formed by the weathering and erosion of preexisting rocks or minerals; the eroded particles or "clasts" are transported and deposited by gravity, air, water, or ice.
GLO30|Mostly sand-, silt-, and gravel-sized sediment deposited on beaches and dunes, and in shallow marine and related alluvial environments.
GLO31|Formed by relatively localized downslope transport of particles or "clasts" produced by weathering and breakdown of the underlying rock, sediment, and/or soil.  Composed of poorly sorted and poorly stratified material ranging in size from clay to boulders.  Commonly, the slopes on which this material occurs fail because of water, earthquake, or volcanic activity, and this material is then transported and deposited downslope.  The speed of sediment transport ranges from rapid to imperceptible.
GLO32|Mostly unsorted and unstratified material, generally unconsolidated, deposited directly by and underneath a glacier without subsequent reworking by meltwater, and consisting of a heterogeneous mixture of clay, silt, sand, gravel, and boulders ranging widely in size and shape.
GLO33|Mostly unsorted and unstratified material, generally unconsolidated, deposited directly by and underneath a glacier without subsequent reworking by meltwater, and consisting of clay, silt, sand, gravel, and boulders ranging widely in size and shape.  Relatively sandy in texture.
GLO34|Mostly sand, silt, and gravel-sized particles or "clasts" derived from rock or preexisting sediment eroded and transported by glaciers.  As the ice melted, this material was deposited by running water essentially in contact with glacial ice, or was transported and deposited by glacially fed streams.  Includes sediment deposited into water bodies adjacent to the glacial ice margin.
GLO35|Mostly sand and gravel-sized particles or "clasts," with lesser silt and clay, derived from rock or preexisting sediment eroded and transported by glaciers.  As the ice melted, this material was deposited by running water essentially in contact with glacial ice, or was transported and deposited by glacially fed streams.  Includes sediment deposited into water bodies adjacent to the glacial ice margin.
GLO36|Mostly silt and clay-sized particles or "clasts," with lesser sand and gravel, derived from rock or preexisting sediment eroded and transported by glaciers.  As the ice melted, this material was deposited by running water essentially in contact with glacial ice, or was transported and deposited by glacially fed streams.  Includes sediment deposited into water bodies adjacent to the glacial ice margin.
GLO37|Mostly well-sorted and well-bedded material, generally silt- and clay-sized with lesser sand and gravel, deposited in perennial to intermittent lakes.  Much of the sediment is derived from material eroded and transported by streams.  Includes deposits of lake-marginal beaches and deltas.
GLO38|A sediment, composed mostly of sand and/or gravel, formed by the weathering and erosion of preexisting rocks or minerals; the eroded particles or "clasts" are transported and deposited by gravity, air, water, or ice.
GLO39|A sediment, composed mostly of silt and/or clay, formed by the weathering and erosion of preexisting rocks or minerals; the eroded particles or "clasts" are transported and deposited by gravity, air, water, or ice.
GLO40|Water or ice
