  1. 1. A re-investigation of hummocky moraine formed from ice sheet decay using geomorphological and sedimentological evidence in the Vomb area, southern Sweden

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Geologiska institutionen

    Author : Tim Bjermo; [2022]
    Keywords : glacial geomorphology; remote sensing; LiDAR; sedimentology; glacitectonite; deformation structures; hummocky moraine; quaternary geology; deglaciation; glacial geomorfologi; fjärranalys; sedimentologi; glacitektonit; deformationstrukturer; småkullig morän; backlandskap; moränlandskap; kvartärgeologi; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Glacial sediment-landform assemblages have long been used to reconstruct the dynamics of ice sheets throughout the Quaternary time period, particularly so for the period of the last glaciation in northern Europe and southern Scandinavia. One such sediment-landform assemblage is hummocky moraine, which has previously been used as an all-encompassing descriptive terminology strongly associated with dead ice meltout and passive deglaciation.
