Spår av “Fluted Surfaces” Från den Senaste Nedisningen

Abstract

During the recent recession of Scandinavian glaciers fluted moraine surfaces are so frequently revealed that this morphology seems to be the normal form of ground moraine in plain surfaces. — Was this sort of fluting also the normal micro topography of emerging moraine surfaces in front of the receding Scandinavian ice sheet and in that case could it still be traced? — The question is discussed on basis of aerial photographs from plains in Northern Norway and Southern Sweden. Even in cultivated areas indications of flutings occur and are revealed in aerial photographs by moisture differences in the ground.
