Quaternary glacier‐dammed lakes in the mountains of Siberia
The authors investigate the phenomenon of lakes dammed by glacier ice in Southern Siberia, and more specifically groups of such lakes in the Altay and Sayan‐Tuvan Upland. Hundreds of cubic kilometers of meltwater have accumulated in the largest lakes—Chuya‐Kuray, Uymon, Darkhat, and others—at elevations ranging from 1,500 to 2,200 m. The breaching of their ice dams (jökulhlaups) in many cases has resulted in large‐scale natural catastrophes, with…
Würm glaciation of Lake Issyk-Kul area, Tian Shan Mts
Late Weichselian Ice Sheet of Northern Eurasia
A considerable portion of Northern Eurasia, and particularly its continental shelf, was glaciated by inland ice during late Weichsel time. This was first inferred from such evidence as glacial striae, submarine troughs, sea-bed diamictons, boulder trains on adjacent land, and patterns of glacioisostatic crustal movements. Subsequently, the inference was confirmed by data on the occurrence and geographic position of late Weichselian end moraines a…
