MARC recordExamples of geomorphological changes in glacially sculptured high Arctic permafrost areas from Svalbard and the Queen Elizabeth Islands, Canada / Lorenz King.
| Title: | Examples of geomorphological changes in glacially sculptured high Arctic permafrost areas from Svalbard and the Queen Elizabeth Islands, Canada / Lorenz King. |
| Author(s): | King, Lorenz. |
| Date: | 1993. |
| Publisher: | Wushan, Guangzhou: South China University of Technology Press |
| In: | Permafrost. Sixth International Conference. Proceedings (Vol. 1), July 5-9, 1993, Beijing China. (1993.), |
| Abstract: | Both areas are in continuous permafrost zone. Focuses on push moraines (ridges formed from sediments pushed or shoved along by advancing glacier) and thermo-erosion features; long-term changes during formation of these are evaluated by means of photogrammetrical and geodetical techniques covering time span up to 28 years. Concentrates on geomorphological comparison, and climatological/ecological background data for understanding of involved geomorphological processes is presented where necessary. |
