| Реферат: | eng: Sedimentary indicators of catastrophic glacial megafloods-plane-bedded angular gravel, cobbles, and boulders-are described in several sections of the high terraces of the Chuya River valley. The principal difference of these sediments from typical alluvium of this area is demonstrated. The clast roundness, grain size of clasts, and sedimentary structures of the high-terrace deposits of the Chuya and Katun' valleys indicate the same facies originated through megaflood deposition. These results are at odds with ideas of alluvial, glacial, or glaciofluvial genesis of the high-terrace deposits of the Chuya River. (C) 2015, V.S. Sobolev IGM, Siberian Branch of the RAS.
