DOI: 10.1016/j.epsl.2020.116517
Abstract: Abstract Previously glaciated landscapes are often covered with glacial sediments with poorly sorted particles. The thickness of glacial sediments can reach hundreds of meters. These sediments, which have experienced high intensity erosion through glacial transportation,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.palaeo.2017.08.004
Abstract: Abstract The author examined the high-latitude Hirnantian diamictites of the Ghelli Formation and the early Silurian olive-gray shales of the Niur Formation exposed in the northeastern Alborz Mountains, Iran. These 404 m thick glacial deposits can… read more here.
