dc.description.abstract<p> Inland degradational trends of coastal dolomite pavements (on the Amabel formation near Tobermory Ontario Map 1) were examined in three wave energy settings: passive, intermediate, and active shores. </p> <p>Six pavement property trends were examined to determine the effect of low fetch lengths (7-10 km - Ford 83) and long shallow wave approach (Map 1) on the break-up of passive coastal pavements (south-west Bear's Rump Island): vegetation cover , grike dimensions, fracturing, pitting, shattering and flaking, and soil and rubble depths. </p> <p> Detailed analysis of small scale surface solution features, "karren", was undertaken at five 1 m sample grids on the intermediate average fetch 70-90 km -Grosset 85) Cyprus Lake provincial park pavements. </p> <p>en_US
