Small‐scale sorted nets on glacial till, Fláajökull (Southeast Iceland) and Elisbreen (Northwest Spitsbergen)
Abstract Small sorted nets occur on glacial tills deposited since the end of 19th century by the Fláajökull (southeast Iceland) and Elisbreen (northwest Spitsbergen) glaciers. The nets have mesh diameters of 0.1 to 1.2 m. They possess a relatively flat microrelief and depth of sorting of 5 to 15 cm....
