| Title: | Iceberg scours, iceberg gravity craters and current erosion marks from a gigantic preboreal flood in southeastern Norway / Oddvar Longva, Morten K. Thoresen. |
| Author(s): | Longva, Oddvar. Thoresen, Morten K. |
| Date: | 1991. |
| In: | Boreas. (1991.), Vol. 20(1) (1991) |
| Abstract: | At about 9200 BP, Romerike area was flooded by as much as 35 m by jökulhlaup from ice-dammed lake "Nedre Glåmsjø". Flood formed characteristic erosion patterns in surface of soft sediments and eroded channels in overflow passes. Icebergs driven by flood-water scoured bottom of lake and formed imprints on flooded surface when stranded. Information from erosion festures is used to reconstruct palaeocurrents. |
| Notes: | Boreas. Vol. 20(1) :47-62 (1991). |
