Abstract: | A review of the history of the nomenclature of the Medina Formation and of the previous studies of its members, particularly those studies dealing with the source of the Whirlpool sandstone. This is an attempt to show the direction of origin of the detrital materials of the Whirlpool sandstone by a study of the lateral variation of its grain size along the Niagara Escarpment. It is illustrated with maps and with photographs taken by the writer. |
