Description :
The marginal zone of the Poznań Phase of Late Weichselian glaciation in western Poland has been deposited in steady-state conditions of the ice-sheet margin. Recent investigations suggest that two Late Weichselian tills occur at this marginal zone, suggesting a re-advance. Petrological data suggest also a change of ice flow direction from north-south during the major advance to northeast-southwest during the readvance. Thus now, almost all marginal zones of the Late Weichselian glaciation in western Poland formed during the general deglaciation have evidence of ice-sheet re-advances.
