International audience Glacitectonically thrusted blocks of unlithified sediment are commonly inferred to have been frozen during thrusting, with implications for paleoclimate and glacier dynamics. We inferred strain patterns within thrusted blocks of glaciolacustrine mud in the Rubjerg Knude and Mø...
