Lake Ontario (74 m above sea level) is located 150–250 km north of the Late Wisconsinan southern limit of the Laurentide Ice Sheet in North America (Figure 1). Multibeam bathymetric mapping in deep eastern Lake Ontario (Figures 2, 3) revealed a set of parallel, straight, narrow ridges trending 235±5° which commonly rise 10–20 m above the surrounding ...

Drumlin Formation: A Rheological Model
Science, 1966Drumlins are formed in a layer of boulder clay separating a glacier from certain types of terrain. Under certain conditions the large particles in the clay form a dilatant system. When flow in the separating layer is interrupted, part of the layer packs into an obstruction and the rest of the material flows around this obstruction, giving it a ...

Morphometry of Landforms: Drumlins
1971Abstract : Lengths, widths, heights, and asymmetries of 55 drumlins in Massachusetts, New York, and southern Germany are derived from 46 miles of traverse. Slope gradients and lengths were measured in the field as a basis for quantitative description of a glacial landform significant to military operations and materiel.

Drumlins are mounds of boulder clay and are characteristic features of the minor topography of Southern Scotland. The word drum or drumlin as the name of these drift hills is indigenous both in Scotland and Ireland. It is common in Scottish place-names as in Drymen, Tyndrum, and Drumadoon. J. Jamieson's Etymological Dictionary of the Scottish Language (

The Kaituri drumlin and drumlin stratigraphy in the Kangasniemi area, Finland
Sedimentary Geology, 1994Abstract The Kangasniemi research area is part of the extensive Pieksamaki drumlin field situated in central Finland. The most common drumlin types in the Kangasniemi area are rock-cored drumlinoids, drumlin shields, and till-cored drumlins. These landforms are composed of sandy till showing well-developed fissility, shear planes, and a range of ...

Drumlins belong to that family of streamline glacial features that range from wholly erosional to wholly depositional. Whether formed by erosion or deposition, the tendency is to develop a form which imposes minimum resistance to glacier flow. Erosion commonly precedes deposition, but either may dominate in shaping of a particular drumlin field.
