Record of glacial Lake Missoula floods in glacial Lake Columbia, Washington
Quaternary Science Reviews, 2016Abstract During the last glaciation (marine oxygen isotope stage 2), outburst floods from glacial Lake Missoula deposited diagnostic sediments within glacial Lake Columbia. Two dominant outburst flood lithofacies are present within glacial Lake Columbia deposits: a flood expansion bar facies and a finer-grained hyperpycnite facies.

Assessment of glacial lake development and downstream flood impacts of critical glacial lake
Natural Hazards, 2021Glacial lakes are rapidly growing in response to climate change and glacier retreat which may lead to catastrophic socio-economic disasters. The failure of moraine-dammed lakes is associated with hazard for mountain communities due to high velocity and depth with destructive ability of glacial lake outburst floods (GLOFs).

Several hundred years after the last flood from glacial lake Missoula, there was at least one last flood that occurred during the breakup of the Okanogan Ice Lobe. The Okanogan Lobe retreated northward from the Waterville Plateau at the end of the Ice Age about 14,000 years ago.

Lake Wayne and Lake Vanuxem Year by year the story of the Laurentian glacial lakes grows more complicated. The steadily falling waters of our youthful innocence are being replaced by a pulsating rise and fall due to rhythmic oscillations of the ice-front. One of these pulsations was long ago recognized by Fairchild[2][1] in his “free drainage” stage of

Glacial lake sedimentation, Austerdalsisen, Norway
Sedimentology, 1976ABSTRACTSediments deposited in a lake at the front of a glacier in the Svartisen area, Norway, have been studied between 1957 and 1974. Until 1959, they were almost completely covered by an outwash plain (sandur), but subsequent erosion has exposed glacial lake sediments more than 70 m deep within a rock basin about 2·5 km long and 1 km wide. The basin

Introduction. The study of the lacustrine history of the Genesee valley was undertaken in continuation of the work upon the glacial lakes in western New York* and with no expectation of making it the subject of a separate paper. The history is found, however, to be of remarkable and romantic character. The glacial waters alternately flowed to the gulf

Introduction Cowanesque River flows eastward across Tioga County, in north central Pennsylvania, to join the Tioga at Lawrenceville. For 15 miles of its course, from Westfield to Nelson, the river meanders across flats three-quarters of a mile wide that broaden to 2 miles between Elkland and Osceola.
