Mary DiGiacomo-Cohen
Mary DiGiacomo-Cohen is a Geologist at the Florence Bascom Geoscience Center.
I work as a Geologist in the Florence Bascom Geoscience Center. I'm part of a team conducting field research and mapping of the Quaternary geology in Massachusetts and parts of Michigan. In addition to geologic mapping, my responsibilities include GIS database development, metadata, and documentation. My interest in New England's glacial history began when I worked as an environmental analyst for the Connecticut Department of Environmental Protection's Geological and Natural History Survey, mapping the geology of Long Island Sound with USGS cooperators.

Task 2 - Geologic Mapping of the Great Lakes States
The area encompassed by Task 2 comprises the states that border the Great Lakes, including Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and New York. The primary objective of Task 2 is to develop an improved understanding of the Quaternary geology of the Great Lakes region. This work involves a combination of detailed (“cornerstone”) mapping efforts and subsurface...
Task 3 - Geologic Mapping of the (other) Non-Coalition Glaciated States
The area encompassed by Task 3 comprises the non-coalition (other) states within the glaciated region, including Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska, and New Jersey. The primary objective of Task 3 is to continue the compilation of existing and create new 1:500,000-scale Quaternary geologic maps for the region, and to conduct new 1:24,000-scale mapping in areas of...
Task 1 - Quaternary Geologic Mapping of the New England States
The area encompassed by Task 1 comprises the states in the New England region, including Connecticut, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, Vermont, New Hampshire, and Maine. The primary objective of Task 1 is to compile the elevation of bedrock and sediment thickness, and to conduct new 1:24,000-scale mapping in areas of greatest need. This work is done in close coordination with the New England States...
Task 2-Quaternary Geologic Mapping and Subsurface Correlation
The area encompassed by Task 2 includes various regions on the margins of the Great Lakes, with initial focus on: (1) several counties along the east margin of Lake Michigan (Leelanau, Benzie, Manistee, and Mason Counties of Michigan); and (2) Berrien County of southwestern Michigan. The primary objective of Task 2 is to produce a seamless, zoomable geologic framework map geodatabase in GeMS...
