“…Where remnants of this weathering mantle survive widely, then glacial erosion has been largely confined to removal of saprolith and must also be b20 m deep. Such remnants occur widely and their distribution correlates with other geomorphic indicators of preglacial relief inheritance and the weak development of glacial landforms in bedrock in eastern Canada (Bouchard et al, 1995;Jansson and Lidmar-Bergstrom, 2004), Greenland (Sugden, 1974), northeast Scotland (Hall and Sugden, 1987), southern Sweden , 1999, northern Sweden (Ebert et al, 2015), western Finland (Söderman, 1985), southern Poland (Hall and Migoń, 2010), and northwest Russia (Evzerov et al, 2007). Interpretation of isolated pockets of shallow gruss and saprock found in zones of more advanced glacial erosion, including streamlined and knock and lochan landscapes, is more difficult (Godard, 1989).…”
