areas. Glacioisostatic recovery ranges from −20 to 300 m in
the Great Lakes basin. Shorelines of prominent proglacial
lakes include the Algonquin, Champlain Sea, Duluth, Glenwood, Iroquois, Maumee, Nipissing, Whittlesey, and Warren
lake stages. Urbanization has left a strong imprint on the
southeastern Lake Michigan shore, Lake St. Claire, the
western and south-central Lake Erie shore, and the northwestern Lake Ontario shore.
