Abstract


Glacilimnical sedimentation in the Skalisko Basin – northern parth of Mazurian Lakeland.
A b s t r a c t. The investigation area is situated in the north part of Mazurian Lakeland in NE from Węgorzewo in the borderland between Poland and Russia. It was covered with the ice sheet during the upper stage of the Vistulian Glaciation. During the recession of the maximum range of the ice-sheet (Pomeranian Phases) the 6 ice-sheet retreated were left. Skaliska Basin this is end depression, between two end moraine zones. The glaciolacustrine and lacustrine sediments was recorded late glacial and postglacial history. The results of the multidisciplinary investigations including cartographical, sedymentological methods indicate that in the ice dammed lake in Skaliska Basin was existed in front of the ice. The outflow from Skaliska ice-dammed was connected with the ice sheet retreat (behind the Prego³a Valley) and development of the new erosion base level (like Pregoła Valley).
