Lorsque les torrents sous-glaciaires ou les torrents s'écoulant le long des parois des glaciers débouchaient sur des terres inclinées vers l'aval de l'ancien front glaciaire, leur charge de sédiments était en partie déposée près du front glaciaire et en partie transportée plus loin par un réseau fluvial superficiel changeant. Ces accumulations sont appelées [...] si elles sont restreintes à une vallée, traînée fluvio-glaciaire. 1, record 2, French, - tra%C3%AEn%C3%A9e%20fluvio%2Dglaciaire
