  • Beschreibung: Six successive zones with distinctive marginal moraines are recognized. Based on radiocarbon dates the ages of the three oldest zones are believed to be: older than 11,100 years B.P. (Vasdal event), about 10,900 B.P. (Glomfjord‐Straumöy events), and between 10,400 and 9500 B.P. (Skjerstad event). The three youngest zones are Preboreal. Corresponding marine sediments, shorelines, glaciation limits and other glacial features are described.
