A geomorphic history based on topographic map evidence Abstract: The Missouri River-Souris River drainage divide area east of Shell Creek discussed here is primarily located in Ward and McLean Counties, North Dakota, USA. Major landforms present besides the river valleys include the Missouri Escarpment and the Missouri Coteau. Landforms in the drainage divide area formed […]
A geomorphic history based on topographic map evidence Abstract: The Missouri River-Sheyenne River drainage divide area discussed here is located in central North Dakota, USA. Major landforms present include the Missouri Escarpment and the Missouri Coteau. The Sheyenne River originates near a major indentation in the Missouri Escarpment at Lincoln Valley. Landforms in the drainage […]
A geomorphic history based on topographic map evidence Abstract: The Pipestem Creek-James River drainage divide area discussed here is located in Wells, Foster, and Stutsman Counties, North Dakota, USA. Major nearby landforms present include the Missouri Escarpment and the Missouri Coteau. Pipestem Creek is a major James River tributary, which flows along the Missouri Escarpment […]
A geomorphic history based on topographic map evidence Abstract: The Sheyenne River-James River drainage divide area discussed here is located in Wells, Benson, and Eddy Counties, North Dakota, USA. This drainage divide is the north-south continental divide, with water in the Sheyenne River eventually reaching Hudson Bay in the north and water in the James […]
A geomorphic history based on topographic map evidence Abstract: The Missouri River-Apple Creek-Pipestem Creek drainage divide area is located in Burleigh, Kidder, and Stutstman Counties, North Dakota and is bounded on the west by the south-southeast oriented Missouri River valley and on the east by the south-southest oriented Pipestem Creek valley. Apple Creek is a […]
A geomorphic history based on topographic map evidence Abstract: The Missouri River-James River drainage divide area between Apple Creek and Beaver Creek is located in south central North Dakota, USA. The region is bounded on the west by the south-oriented Missouri River and on the east by the south-oriented James River. Apple Creek and Beaver […]
A geomorphic history based on topographic map evidence Abstract: The Missouri Coteau-James River drainage divide area discussed here is located in Dickey County, North Dakota and McPherson and Brown Counties, South Dakota, USA. The Missouri Coteau is a region of small interior drainage basins and is underlain by thick glacial debris interpreted to have been […]
A geomorphic based on topographic map evidence Abstract: The Missouri River-Missouri Escarpment drainage divide area along the North Dakota-South Dakota border includes areas in Emmons, McIntosh, and Dickey Counties, North Dakota and areas in Campbell and McPherson Counties, South Dakota. Between the south-oriented Missouri Coteau and the east-facing Missouri Escarpment is the Missouri Coteau, which […]

Abstract: Topographic map interpretation methods are used to determine landform origins in the South Saskatchewan River-Big Muddy Creek drainage divide area located south and west of the northeast-facing Missouri Escarpment in southern Saskatchewan. Today a southeast and south oriented discontinuous drainage route extends from the deep northeast-oriented South Saskatchewan River valley edge to the southeast and […]
Abstract: The “thick ice sheet that melted fast” geomorphology paradigm is being introduced in the Missouri River drainage basin research project essays by interpreting large quantities of previously neglected topographic map drainage divide evidence. Fundamental differences between the “thick ice sheet that melted fast” geomorphology paradigm and the prevailing geomorphology paradigm are related to number […]
