Buried and forgotten—The non‐fluvial characteristics of postglacial rivers
“The systematic analysis and understanding of channel‐forming processes of rivers must be expanded by including semi‐ and non‐fluvial geomorphological processes. Such processes were particularly driven by glaciation during the Pleistocene and led to diamictic non‐fluvial deposits in the post‐glacial valleys. In the Holocene, rivers either covered these deposits with fluvial sediments or incised into them and exposed the non‐fluvial deposits. These processes have strong and so far overlooked implications for the understanding of the genesis, morphology and sediment composition of many rivers – and thus for river utilization, ecology, restoration and management.”
