<p></p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>__NOTOC__<br /> {{OR/13/050}}<br /> Below is a list of units that have been modelled as volumes in the Somerset Levels model (BGS lexicon codes in brackets, [http://www.bgs.ac.uk/lexicon// www.bgs.ac.uk/lexicon)].<br /> <br /> Superficial deposits:<br /> <br /> * Alluvium (ALV)<br /> * Tufa (TUFA)<br /> * Blown sand (BSA)<br /> * Beach and Tidal Flats, Undifferentiated (BTFU)<br /> * Peat (PEAT3)<br /> * Head (HEAD)<br /> * Tidal Flat Deposits (TFD2)<br /> * Peat (PEAT2)<br /> * Tidal Flat Deposits (TFD1)<br /> * Peat (PEAT1)<br /> * Sand and Gravel (SGAO)<br /> * River Terrace Deposits, 1 (RTD1)<br /> * River Terrace Deposits, Undifferentiated (RTDU)<br /> * Unknown Drift (UNKND)<br /> * Burtle Formation (BUB)<br /> <br /> Bedrock deposits:<br /> <br /> * Lias Group (LIAS)<br /> * Triassic Rocks&amp;nbsp;—&amp;nbsp;Mudstones and Siltstones (TRIAS-MDSS)<br /> * Triassic Rocks&amp;nbsp;—&amp;nbsp;Sandstones, Conglomerate (TRIAS-SCON)<br /> * Dinantian (DINA)<br /> * Upper Devonian (UDEV)<br /> <br /> These geological units were chosen to best represent the current 1:50&amp;nbsp;000 scale superficial and 1:625&amp;nbsp;000 scale bedrock geology in the Somerset Levels basin. For the units TFD1, TFD2, PEAT1, PEAT2, PEAT3 that don’t conform to standard BGS lexicon entries, we assigned them an informal unit name and status. These units all belong to the Somerset Levels Formation as defined by McMillan et al. (2011)&lt;ref name=&quot;McMillan 2011&quot;&gt;<br /> <br /> MCMILLAN, A A, HAMBLIN, R J O, and MERRITT, J W. 2011.

These units only occur within the Quaternary (superficial) succession.<br /> ==References==<br /> &lt;References/&gt;<br /> [[Category: OR/13/050 Model metadata report for the Somerset levels 3D geological model | 05]]</div>
