The washboard moraine complex located in Hardin County, Iowa can be found immediately to the west of the terminal moraine of the Wisconsinan age Des Moines Lobe. Aerial photo interpretation indicates that the individual ridges are oriented in a general northeast-southwest direction over a large ...
The entire moraines are located in the Par- lung Zangbo River Basin. Six terminal moraines are located in the trunk valley of the Parlung Zangbo River and are named P1, P2, P3, P4, P5, and P6. Three moraines are located in the tributary valley (Bodui Zangbo River) and are ...

China’s temperate glaciers are distributed mainly in the Hengduan range in the southeastern QTP, the southern part of the Himalayas, and the middle east of the Nyainqêntanglha, mainly in the three provinces of Tibet, Yunnan, and Sichuan. According to Chinese glacier inventory, China has 8607...
The geomorphological consequences of the surge include the formation of push moraines from toppled ice blocks along this ice cliff and the development of debris-rich thrusts. There is also evidence of glaciotectonic deformation within deformed debris-rich thrusts. Thrusts are restricted to the ...
Reconnaissance work from the 1920's (Achuff, 2002) suggest that features in Rocky Mountain National Park previously interpreted as terminal moraines, are actually large ice masses covered in debris that consist of multiple components and therefore are better called a glacial complex. Hart Glacier ...
Collectively, data on loess particle size distributions, thickness, and silt mineralogy suggest that this loess sheet had sources in two distinct and disjunct landscapes: (1) the late Wisconsin terminal moraine to the northwest, and (2) the sandstone-dominated landscapes to the west and southwest....
terminal moraineMoraine morphology is a valuable indicator of climate change. The glacial deposits of ten valleys were selected in the Parlung Zangbo River Basin, southeastern Tibetan Plateau, to study the glacial characteristics of the Last Glaciation and the climate change processes as revealed by ...
The studied region predominantly consisted of limestone, along with glacial moraine debris generally constituted of easily eroded minerals such as muscovite granite, calcareous sandstone, tuff, and limestone. These factors add to the amount of silt carried by the river and enhance its mineral content....
At that time of the year, grass on the terminal and lateral moraine gives a red tone on the FCC, helping to delineate the debris cover area. Other studies [39, 73, 133, 134] proposed semi-automatic methods for the delineation of debris-covered glaciers using satellite imagery combined with...
