On the Formation of Small Marginal Lakes on the Juneau Icefield, South-Eastern Alaska, U.S.A.
AbstractThis paper puts forward an explanation of the origin of small marginal lakes (superglacial or moat lakes) occasionally found on the edges of valley glaciers. The explanation departs from earlier theories. On the basis of observations made on the Juneau Icefield in south-eastern Alaska, I have come to the conclusion that the lake basins are primarily blow-outs formed as a result of wind erosion.
