  2. Drumlin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drumlin

    For example, drumlin fields including drumlins composed entirely of hard bedrock cannot be explained by deposition and erosion of unconsolidated beds. [15] Furthermore, hairpin scours around many drumlins are best explained by the erosive action of horseshoe vortices around obstacles in a turbulent boundary layer.

  3. Kame - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kame

    A drumlin is not originally shaped by meltwater, but by the ice itself and has a quite regular shape. It occurs in fine-grained material, such as clay or shale, not in sands and gravels. And drumlins usually have concentric layers of material, as the ice successively plasters new layers in its movement.

  4. Glacial landform - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glacial_landform

    [1] [3] Examples include glacial moraines, eskers, and kames. Drumlins and ribbed moraines are also landforms left behind by retreating glaciers. Many depositional landforms result from sediment deposited or reshaped by meltwater and are referred to as fluvioglacial landforms. Fluvioglacial deposits differ from glacial till in that they were ...

    Withrow Moraine and Jameson Lake Drumlin Field "contains the best examples of drumlins and the most illustrative segment of the only Pleistocene terminal moraine in the Columbia Plateau biophysiographic province. ... They are also the only such glacial features in the world to show a clear geological relationship to catastrophic flooding."

  7. Glacier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glacier

    Drumlins are found in groups called drumlin fields or drumlin camps. One of these fields is found east of Rochester, New York; it is estimated to contain about 10,000 drumlins. Although the process that forms drumlins is not fully understood, their shape implies that they are products of the plastic deformation zone of ancient glaciers.

  9. Namibian drumlins - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Namibian_drumlins

    The Namibian drumlins are a geologic feature in Namibia. Since drumlins only occur as the result of glaciers, researchers determined they are the relic of an ice age in the late Paleozoic Era. [1] The researchers measured the supposed rock drumlins with satellite imagery available on the Internet.
