Latepaleozoic and Quaternary glacial periods. Discrown of glacial theory.

      Аннотация: The geological features of the Permo-Carboniferous glaciation are based on the same criteria as for the Quaternary glaciation. The author’s many years of research have proved that the “exaration” types of the relief of the Quaternary fiords, skerries, lake basins in bedrock, drumlins, foreheads, polished rocks, furrows on bedrock – all this formed by the disjunctive dislocations. They occupy their normal place in the ensemble of paragenetic structures that accompany faulting. Extremly favorable conditions for the development of terrestrial vegetation were created in the Carboniferous period. And the climate of the Permian period was generally the warmest of the formerly dominant Paleozoic. The results of the drilling land ice (up to subglacial surface) in Antarctica and Greenland are of special, unique importance. It turned out that instead of moraine-containing ice mass, as if filled with huge blocks and boulders,only inclusions of sandy-loamy and fine-earth substance are recorded in the continental ice. An important function of glaciers is the conservation of the subglacial geological-topographic surface.
