Talk:Baltic Ice Lake

Sudden discharge phases

The article supposes at least two times when the ice moved north off Mt Billingen, instigating a sudden sheer torrent at this one point into the Western Sea. This is how it used to be sdescribed but most quaternary geologists in Sweden have turned to the view that the drop-off was less dramatic, taking the water through channels and small rivers westwards. /83.254.145.202 (talk) 11:24, 1 August 2009 (UTC)

Agree, when I identified this article was poor in references, a scratch analysis suggests it has likely skipped an awful amount of academic controversy since the concept first arose about 1910 and also seems to be based on work done before 1980. I will see if the following references can improve it as at least I have walked on Baltic shorelines:
