Montezuma Marsh is a marsh at the northern end of Cayuga Lake in the Finger Lakes region of New York. Much of the marsh is part of the Montezuma National Wildlife Refuge, which is a major point on the route of many migratory birds, such as Canada geese and mallard ducks. rdf:langString
La palude di Montezuma è una palude all'estremo nord del Lago Cayuga, nel territorio della cittadina di Montezuma, nella regione dei Finger Lakes, Stato di New York. Gran parte della palude è protetta dal che rappresenta un'importante area migratoria per molte specie di uccelli, come l'oca del Canada e il germano reale. rdf:langString

rdf:langString Montezuma Marsh is a marsh at the northern end of Cayuga Lake in the Finger Lakes region of New York. Much of the marsh is part of the Montezuma National Wildlife Refuge, which is a major point on the route of many migratory birds, such as Canada geese and mallard ducks. The Cayuga valley is an old preglacial valley, which once drained northward into the Ontario Valley. Cayuga Lake and Montezuma Marsh were partially created by the damming effect of huge quantities of glacial drift brought from the Laurentian Shield of Canada and the deepened Ontario valley. (Cayuga Lake was also deepened southward of the area of the marsh.) The valley is completely buried by a drumlin field between the marsh and Lake Ontario. The marsh was a barrier to westward travel in colonial times as roads could not be built across it, with the technology of the time. The first major passageway was the Erie Canal, which was completed in 1825 but the digging of the section that crossed the marsh was one of the most difficult, with great loss of life due to mosquito borne fevers (possibly malaria). The cut was finally finished by digging it in the winter (also with great suffering, due to frostbite) when mosquitoes were dormant.

La valle del Cayuga è un'antica valle preglaciale che un tempo sfociava nella valle dell'Ontario. Il Lago Cayuga e la palude di Montezuma furono parzialmente create dall'effetto di riempimento di enormi quantità di detriti glaciali trasportati dallo Scudo Laurenziano del Canada e l'abbassamento della valle dell'Ontario.
