interpreted drumlins as the product of large-magnitude subglacial meltwater flows (Sharpe, 1987; Shaw and Sharpe, 1987), subglacial erosion (Gravenor, 1953, 1957), or deformation of overridden proglacial sediments (Crozier, 1975).” Large differences in water tests were expected yet the results show only slight variations in the water. It seems that the local geological and environmental factors do not have as great an influence on water composition as was expected. The entire area is part of the Otonabee Watershed that drains the area into the Otonabee and Indian River and then into Rice Lake. Vegetation in the Peterborough region is more dependent on the local characteristics of drainage and geology than on the variations in latitude. The soils in the region are largely the result of differences in parent material and glacial till. None of the soil horizons appeared overly thick and consisted mainly of sands and gravel. The lack of organic, deep soils is probably due to the glaciers resetting the soils. The climate is slightly moderated by the lakes around Peterborough and detailed field notes on microclimate were not available. In conclusion, the Peterborough region contains a wide variety of glacial products that have been and could be very useful to professional and amateurs studying the effects of glaciation.Appendix Table 1: Hydrology TestsTest for:Bedrock KnobIndian RiverWarsaw CavesTemperature(degrees Celsius)20?18Dissolved Oxygen14 mg/L5 mg/L21 mg/LTotal Hardness(Calcium Carbonate)307.8 mg/L?256.5 mg/Lp.H. 7.27.48Ammonia0.42 mg/L1.03 mg/L0CO235 mg/L15 mg/L50 mg/LChloride60 mg/L153 mg/L150 mg/LAlkalinity(Calcium Carbonate)307.8 mg/L170 mg/L205.2 mg/LNitrate0.0825 mg/L0.033 mg/L0Table 2: Tree Trunk Diameter in Centimeters North-South TransectBurnham ParkDrumlin (345 084)Rice Lake DrumlinDeciduous55.6, 48.5, 19.8, 22.6, 19.4, 14.0, 13.2, 15.1, 11.4, 8.2, 33.065.8, 5.9, 9.0, 5.8Coniferous 27.5, 37.3, 45.246.0, 122.1...
