Thus, although there are irregularities in the relief and a number of topographic types are found, no part of Denmark is more than 510 feet above sea level, and the entire land surface shows the effects of glaciation. In some places level, sandy outwash plains; in others clayey ground moraines; and in still other areas the terminal moraines are impressive features of the landscape. The drainage pattern further bears witness to widesl)reacl glaciation, as indicated in the number of glacial lakes, swamps, and marshes. In some places marked striations on the underlying rocks show the direction of movement of the glacial ice, whereas the types of glacial debris and l)oulders suggest their probable source of origin.Read More
