Summary "Drainage Modifications and Glaciation in the Danbury Region Connecticut" by Ruth Sawyer Harvey, Ph.D., is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. The work focuses on the geological and geomorphological characteristics of the Danbury region, particularly examining the effects of glaciation on drainage systems in the area. Using extensive fieldwork and data collection, Harvey analyzes the interactions between the landscape, glacial activity, and the evolution of the river systems in western Connecticut. At the start of this bulletin, the author introduces the geographical and geological backdrop of the Danbury region, discussing its significance as a representative area for understanding similar processes across Connecticut. Harvey presents a detailed overview of field research undertaken from 1907 to 1908, including a traverse of stream valleys and an examination of various drainage modifications caused by glaciation. Fundamental topics covered in the opening section include the description of Rocky River, the regional geological structures, and the implications of glacial deposits on the evolving landscape and drainage patterns of the region.
