Abstract:
The extensively folded, faulted, and regionally metamorphosed rocks contained within the Avalon platform, Appalachian geosyncline, and Meguma geosyncline are the foundation for the Gulf of Maine. Within the Avalon platform, which makes up most of the Gulf's basement, is a series of fault basins of probable Triassic age. The Gulf's basement and entrained Triassic basins are truncated by an erosional surface on which rest remnants of coastal plain sediments, glacial till, and outwash, and small pockets of Holocene sediments. This sedimentary sequence which overlies the erosional surface averages less than 50 m in thickness.
