词条 | Diamicton |
释义 |
The term was proposed by Flint and others[4] as a purely descriptive term, devoid of any reference to a specific origin or depositional environment. Although the term is most commonly applied to unsorted glacial deposits (i.e., glacial till), other processes that create diamictons are solifluction, landslides, debris flows, and turbiditic olistostromes.[2][3] Lithified diamicton is referred to as diamictite.[2][3] References1. ^Jackson, J.A., J.
