MARC recordRelationship of drumlin shape and distribution to drumlin stratigraphy and glacial history, Mýrdalsjökull, Iceland / Johannes Krüger.
| Title: | Relationship of drumlin shape and distribution to drumlin stratigraphy and glacial history, Mýrdalsjökull, Iceland / Johannes Krüger. |
| Author(s): | Krüger, Johannes. |
| Date: | 1987. |
| Publisher: | Rotterdam: A.A. Balkema |
| In: | Drumlin symposium. Proceedings of the Drumlin Symposium/First International Conference on Geomorphology/Manchester/16-18 September 1985. (1987.), |
| Abstract: | Internal composition of drumlins in environment representing conditions similar to those during Pleistocene suggests that they were formed by subglacial deposition of till, and also that obstacles of pre-existing sediment bodies acted as factor favouring formation. Sediment bodies, which make up present drumlin cores, are shaped mainly by pro-glacial meltwater activity prior to drumlin formation. Suggests it is meaningless to relate drumlin spacing and density within field and shape of forms to characteristics of moving ice unless qualified by reference to stratigraphy of drumlins and glacial history of area. |
