About the “thick ice sheet that melted fast” geomorphology paradigm

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 […]
