The data were collected within three environments of glacial deposition i.e. supraglacial of dead glacial ice and layer of relegation ice adhering to the glacier bottom and subglacial ones. A distinct textural individuality is typical for supraglacial deposits. Arrangement and orientation of boulders coming from the basal part of a glacier as well as from the morainic subglacial sediment deposited under the active ice show many similarities. But in both latter zones as well as certain differentiation was found to be caused by morphology of the older bedrock, changes during a subglacial deposition and preliminary epigenetic changes that occur in the conditions of a subglacial regelation before a stabilization of a passive zone of subglacial permafrost.}, type={Article}, title={Texture of recent morainic deposits of a terminal zone of the Werenskiöld Glacier (Spitsbergen)}, URL={http://journals.pan.pl/Content/111610/PDF/1980_2-3_045-074.pdf}, keywords={Arctic, Spitsbergen, geomorphology, sedimentology}, }
