VI.—Notes on Some Valleys of Erosion
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 01 May 2009
Extract
During the summer of last year I had the opportunity of visiting various localities in the State of New York which are of great geological interest; and I was particularly struck by the numbers of valleys which are exclusively the work of the rivers by which they are occupied, as compared with those which are in every way caused by mechanical disturbance of the beds through which they run.
