DEF

Glace à interstratifications de sédiments.

CONT

La glace stratifiée se forme généralement sur le rivage par recouvrements répétés d'eau trouble, lors du flot, ou par congélation alternée de couches de sédiments et de glace, à la base du pied de glace soulevé par la marée.

CONT

[...] par la pression, [l'air dans la glace bulleuse] finit par être éliminé; la glace devient compacte et se montre formée de couches successives; c'est la «glace stratifiée».
