| Abstract: | In connection with the construction of a tunnel collecting water beneath a glacier (Bondhusbreen/Folgefonni) in SW Norway the amount of sediments transported by meltwater has been investigated. According to the values obtained the volume of the sedimentation chamber which has to take a one-years-amount of sediment was fixed at 5000 m3. In 1978 there has been a sedimentation of 3000 m3 of coarse material. The results obtained are not only of practical value, but also of scientific interest. |
