Acronym | LICHEN
Description | Relative dating of moraines
Principal Investigator (PI) | Maciej Dąbski, Anna Łosiak
Organisation | Warsaw University

### Summary

### Objectives

The aim of the project is to inter-correlate and evaluate the usefulness of three different indices of moraine relative age:

- sizes of lichen thalli
- Schmidt hammer rebound values (R−values)
- weathering rind thickness measured on rock surfaces
