Definicja

parallel ridges of debris deposited along the sides of a glacier.

  • 1.Because lateral moraines are deposited on top of the glacier, they do not experience the postglacial erosion of the valley floor and therefore, as the glacier melts, lateral moraines are usually preserved as high ridges.
