Abstract

All glacial deposits were transported from somewhere else but only a few show clear evidence of transportation that sets them apart from the others. Thus, glacial landforms of transportation include single erratics, boulder trains of erratics, and indicator fans or dispersal fans. More rarely, medial moraines may be preserved.
