In northern Poland appear some traces of periglacial environment, which are connected with the decline of the last glaciation. On the area of the older substages of this glaciation nearly all periglacial phenomena are represented; the small elements of the periglacial relief pattern are also to be found. In Pomerania, however, the periglacial climatic conditions, associated with the period of the Younger Dryas did not leave any morphological marks. It is only the particular periglacial structures, as ice wedges, free involutions and the slope deposits resulting from down-wash processes, that appear here.
