Weichselian upper pleniglacial aeolian and ice‐cored morphology in the southern Netherlands (Noord‐Brabant, groote peel)
Abstract The morphology of the Weichselian Late Pleniglacial land surface in the Groote Peel nature reserve (southern Netherlands) is characterized by numerous circular to oval depressions. The depressions are up to 90 m wide and 3 m deep. Some are surrounded by low (50–100 cm) ridges. Two depressio...
