Deformation of soft sandy sediments during deglaciation and subsequent emergence of land areas; examples from northern Karelia, Finland
A variety of deformation structures in sandy sediments are described, the origin of which may be ascribed to the escape of excess pore‐water from liquefied and fluidized sediments in response to density instabilities created by external and/or internal loading. A number of deformations found in expo...
