(A) Location of the study site in relation to extents of ice sheets, (B) Location on the geological background (according to SMGP 1:50,000). Holocene: 1 – fluvial sand and mud; Vistulian: 2 – mineral-organic mud, 3 – deluvial sand and mud, 4 – fluvial sands; Warta Stadial: 5 – glaciofluvial sand, 6 – glaciofluvial sand and gravel, 7 – glacial sand with gravel, 8 – sand, gravel and boulder (morainic), 9 – glacial till; 10 – study site.
