The code was originated for use in describing Quaternary Domains in the Sellafield (Cumbria) area, as a subset of "Alluvial deposits overlying possible postglacial sequence". To avoid potential confusion it should be used only for similar purposes in future. Note that on the related Quaternary Domains map, this category was described as: "Possible buried postglacial estuarine-marine sequence". |
