De Geer Moraines


This is a wonderful LIDAR image of De Geer moraines in SW Finland.  These stringy little moraines are generally assumed to form parallel to the retreating ice front  -- but some way up-glacier from the ice edge -- in conditions where the bed material is saturated and where the ice is almost being lifted off the bed in a lake or marine environment.
