Recent patterned grounds development on a glacier surface (Dovrefjell, Central Norway) : an ephemeral periglacial activity in a paraglacial context

Auteur(s) et Affiliation(s)



Description :
Researches carried out on the main glacier of the Dovrefjell massif, Scandes Mountains, Norway (62° N; 9° E) point to recent periglacial features which are presently directly developed on the ice. This original location raises the problem of their morphodynamic significance and a hypothesis of ephemeral periglacial activity in a paraglacial context is proposed here.
