Summary
The superficial deposits within the map sheets are discribed and classified according to their genesis. Within map sheet Brattvåg both land and sea areas are mapped. The dominant deposits are tills, marine sediments, weathering material and bogs. The area has been glaciated at least three times during the Weichselian with intervening interstadial periods. The last deglaciation occured some time before 12,300 years B.P., and several moraines were deposited. During Younger Dryas the ice front was situated far to the east of the area, but several cirque moraines were formed within map sheet Brattvåg. The regression was very rapid just after deglaciation and up to 9000 years B.P., but levelled off during Younger Dryas. The Holocene transgression maximum was reached at about 6000-7000 years B.P.
