Arctic push moraines, a case study of the Thompson Glacier moraine, Axel Heiberg Island, N.W.T., Canada / Rainer Lehmann.
Title: | Arctic push moraines, a case study of the Thompson Glacier moraine, Axel Heiberg Island, N.W.T., Canada / Rainer Lehmann. |
Author(s): | Lehmann, Rainer. |
Date: | 1992. |
Abstract: | Push moraines develop as glacier advances into frozen glaciofluvial sediments. Moraine grows at front while additional frozen blocks are raised in outwash plain and incorporated into moraine: thus, glacier and moraine advance as one. This causes stacking of permafrost. |
Notes: | Offprint: Zeitschrift für Geomorphologie. Supplementband. Vol. 86 :161-171. |
