Abstract

Lateral boundary embankments observed in the lower (front) part and more significantly at the top parts of the Glacier Kolka bed are fragments of structures similar to conventional circular embankments around explosion funnel (in this case – funnel of directed gasdynamic explosively release of glacier Kolka) and are typical formations of primary release wave.
