Figure 8. Seismic reflection profile over a moraine complex in Wells Embayment (modified from Miller, 1997). Bedrock is poorly resolved beneath the till which was shaped by the ice into a series of ridges up to 10 m high. The seafloor here is made of sand and gravel with boulders like that seen in Figure 2 and Figure 3b.
