Abstract
Since 1837, due to the works of L. Agassiz in Switzerland, the glacial theory has started gaining recognition. In Russia its development is associated with the names of K.F. Rul’e, G.E. Shchurovskii, B.F. Shmidt, A.P. Pavlov, P.A. Kropotkin, and after the Revolution — with the names of S.V. Obruchev, I.P. Gerasimov, K.K. Markov, M.P. Grichuk, A.A. Velichko, and others. Not only continental glacial boundaries have been studied but also lithology of glacial bodies (Rukhina 1960; Aseev 1974; Moreny 1989, and others), stratigraphy, morphology, erosional and accumulation, etc. Study of the continental glacial process has been carried out very actively but it is still far from being completed.
