In South Eastern Iceland, some ice-contact features are described, at the foot of Vatnajokull especially| the development of kettle holes is the result of fast modifications of sandur areas and moraines by the melting out of glacier ice. Two main
kinds of kettle holes are distinguished: kettles resulting from the melting out of icebergs swept away by glacier bursts (jokulhaups), collapse structures in glacial and fluvioglacial deposits after burying of dead when ice margins retreat.

On the basis of field investigations at water-filled hollow moulds (kettle holes) in Ostbrandenburg the density of this landscape element, the function and the efficiency in the rural landscape were analysed. The focus of this investigation lies
in the integration of the kettle holes in the management of the rural landscape concerning ecological aspects which hall be low in costs and expenditure. (HL).

On clear nights with little or no wind strong outgoing radiation causes cold air to flow down the slopes and rapidly fill the deepest part of the kettle hole. In the cold nights at the beginning of the growth period, frost affected the lowest
branches of the spruces growing in the lower parts of the kettle hole, and smaller trees were totally frozen. Tree growth increased in the upper slopes of the kettle hole, where the trees have survived the radiation shock following the deforestation.

South-Western of Rostock a number of kettle holes are to be found, which are located in the form of garlands. This phenomenon is discussed and interpreted as a result of the movement dynamics of glaciers.

Influence of terrestrial vegetation on sediment-forming processes in kettle lakes of west-central Minnesota
The composition, magnetic characteristics, and pollen content of sediments from two small kettle lakes near the prairie-forest border in west-central Minnesota were used to infer changes in terrestrial vegetation, shoreline erosion, eolian inputs
