Many of these formed part of the MS thesis or PhD dissertation of
the authors of these maps in the Department of Geological Sciences
at the University at Albany;
some are from senior undergraduate or graduate independent
study projects,
or from compilation of information obtained in the field while
supervising the Albany Geological Mapping field camp.
Most of these maps are unpublished, and many are on diazo/blueline
paper, fading, and deteriorating by acid embrittlement and
discolouration. The files linked represent an attempt to preserve
these data (especially the outcrop locations, and the lithological,
stratigraphic, and structural information), the product of much
sweat, hard work, and intellectual effort in the imperfectly exposed
and geologically complex region of the New York-New England
Appalachians.
