Some remarks on distribution and genesis of palaeoincisions in the East Baltic area

Until the recent time genesis of palaeoincisions is one of the debatable problems among the Quaternary investigators in the East Baltic area. Distribution of palaeoincisions in the East Baltic area is closely correlated with the pre-Quaternary bedrock lithology and permeability as well as with recen...
