Description :
This paper deals with geological action of drift ice on the marine littoral environment. The spatial, temporal and physical characteristics of sea ice cover are examined, together with their effects in the littoral zone, especially in four areas of northern Canada. Only few ice generated features in modern depositional shorelines are likely to be preserved in ancient shoreline sequences.
