An annual layer of sediment or sedimentary rock
A layer or series of layers of sediment deposited in a body of still water in one year
A layer in a deposit of sedimentary material, showing seasonal variation caused by differences in summer and winter deposition Varves are particularly characteristic of the layering of sediments carried by glacial meltwater
Laminated clays and fine grained sedimentsof glacial origin deposited in lakes during theretreat of glacial ice Each lamina or varvehas a thicker coarser layer and a finer layerwhich represent a years seasonal cycle ofdeposition Varve is the Swedish word for cycle
(Geology) (1) A layer or series of layers of sediment deposited in a body of still water in one year (2) A regular, annual layer of silt or clay deposited in a glacier-fed lake within one year's time (3) A pair of layers of alternately finer and coarser silt or clay believed to comprise an annual cycle of deposition in a body of still water
A layer or series of layers of sediment deposited in a body of still water
A pair of sediment beds deposited by a lake on its floor, typically consisting of a thick, coarse, light-colored bed deposited in the summer and a thin, fine-grained, dark-colored bed deposited in the winter Varves are most often found in lakes that freeze in the winter The number and nature of varves on the bottom of a lake provide information about the lake's age and geologic events that affected the lake's development
A layer of sediment deposited in lakes during one year Each layer consists of two parts, which are deposited at different seasons and which differ in color and texture; thus, the layers can be counted and measured In a complete series, the number of layers gives the date on which the ground was vacated by the retreating ice (Source: Carbon Dioxide Information Analysis Center, 1990)
A thin yearly deposit of sediment found on the bottom of a lake Within each yearly varve, there are variations in the color and the texture of the material deposited The thinkness of the varve and its layers can be used to reconstruct past environmental conditions influencing the lake
