Late Weichselian ice-flow directions in J ren, SW Norway; clast fabric and clast lithology evidence in the uppermost till
Late Weichselian ice-flow directions in southern Jaeren, SW Norway, have been reconstructed through the applications of clast fabric and clast lithology in the uppermost till, and from glacial striations. Combined with previously published data, the results of the present investigation indicate three different ice-flow directions (phases). The earliest phase, towards the NW, is related to an ice stream along the Norwegian Channel. During the second phase, terrestrial ice from central south Norway moved towards the coast as the Norwegian Channel Ice Stream disintegrated. During the final deglaciation, part of the terrestrial ice became reactivated and advanced towards the SW in the northern part of the study area.
