The above theory for the formation of these Icelandic drumlins best explains one type of drumlin. However, it does not provide a unifying explanation of all drumlins. For example, drumlin fields including drumlins composed entirely of hard bedrock cannot be explained by deposition and erosion of unconsolidated beds. [15]
Drumlins may be composed of stratified or unstratified till ranging in size from sand to boulders. The non-uniformity of drumlin composition is representative of the diverse origin of the sediments. [38] Banding or layering of till may occur in drumlins as till accumulates on the drumlin formation in successive layers. [38]
Here is a test to check whether a particular program is continuous: Construct the orthocenter of triangle and three midpoints (say A', B' C' ) between vertices and orthocenter. Construct a circumcircle of A'B'C' . This is the nine-point circle, it intersects each side of the original triangle at two points: the base of altitude and midpoint ...
The latest thoughts on Drumlin formation (I'm an Irish geologist, we named them and the best are here in Ireland), they formed towards the end of the last ice age when climate rapidly warmed. The higher temperatures caused the base of glaciers (~1 km thick) to melt and the water generated lubricated the contact between the glacier's base and ...

Plant-Based Proteins: Learning to cook plant-based proteins like tofu, seitan or tempeh can take some practice, but they can be just as delicious as animal proteins. Plus, you can often adapt your ...
The Unified Soil Classification System (USCS) is a soil classification system used in engineering and geology to describe the texture and grain size of a soil.The classification system can be applied to most unconsolidated materials, and is represented by a two-letter symbol.
