Formation of esker in ice-age

Formation of esker in ice-age. Sand and gravel sedimentation in meltwater tunnel of crevasse in moraine-choked glacier ice or dead-ice. The shape of the esker formed after the melting of the ice by soil slipping from the ice-contact walls. Source: Atlas of Denmark.

Present stage of outwash plains

Present stage of outwash plains. 2. Outwash plain. 3. Moraine landscape. a. Highest point of outwash plain. b. The ice-contact slope of the high outwash plain against the moraine landscape. c. Bog, overgrown lake. d. Lake. e. Marginal moraine. f. Boggy area. A. Moraine. C. Meltwater deposits. Source: Atlas of Denmark.

Tunnel-meltwater glacial complex.

Tunnel-meltwater glacial complex. 1. Moraine plateau. 2. Tunnel valley. a. Mosso basin. b. Saltena valley. 3. Fluvio-glacial valley. 4. Valley terraces, resistant parts of earlier valley bottoms, consisting of metlwater deposits. 5. Dead-ice depressions. c. Salten Langso. d. Bog depression. e. Kettle-holes. 6. Post-glacial erosion valleys, dissecting the moraine plateau. 7. Recent valley bottom. f. Gudena. g. Delta of the River Gudena in the Mosso basin. Source: Atlas of Denmark.

Cliff in dislocated glacial deposits.

Cliff in dislocated glacial deposits. Surface-forming stages in late- and post-glacial period. III. Ground moraine, deposited discordantly over dislocated meltwater deposits. IV. Deflation-plain, the result of removal of fine-grained moraine components by the alnd surface and inducing the formation of a humification horizon over stones. VI. Blown sand covering other deposits. D2. Stones. E. Humus horizon. F. Blown sand. In this substratum the present cliff was formed by the action of the sea and atmospheric forces. Source: Atlas of Denmark.
