Late Quaternary glaciation in the south‐western Barents Sea
Moraine ridges have been morphologically and seismically identified in the south‐western Barents Sea. Some of these ridges were deposited in front of ice lobes from the northern part of the Fennoscandian Ice Sheet, others in front of glaciers located on the southern Barents Sea shelf. The moraine ri...

Summary: | Moraine ridges have been morphologically and seismically identified in the south‐western Barents Sea. Some of these ridges were deposited in front of ice lobes from the northern part of the Fennoscandian Ice Sheet, others in front of glaciers located on the southern Barents Sea shelf. The moraine ridges were probably deposited during the Weichselian, possibly the Late Weichselian. |
