- •
We investigated coarse sediment transport in a proglacial area.
- •
An extreme flood event caused major geomorphological changes along the stream bed.
- •
In the proximal area of the glacier large amounts of sediment were eroded.
- •
The sediment was deposited distal to the glacier in areas with lower slope.
