Rouge National Urban Park / Little Rouge River. The grey river bottom is a regional deposit of hard clay laid down in the ancient glacial Lake Peel, created between the front lobe of the ice sheet and the Niagara Escarpment about 12,000 years ago. The Rouge and Little Rouge Rivers cut thru it.

Severe damage reported after a 8.0-magnitude earthquake hits Penonomé, Panama 🇵🇦 Greenland is losing 30 million tonnes of ice per hour. The melting of ice sheets due to global warming affect the movement of tectonic plates and consequently, cause more earthquakes, tsunamis, and volcanic eruptions.
