Midtmorene

Moren er naturlig materiale (vanligvis jord og stein) som er flyttet på av en isbre og deretter deponert i ansamlinger.

En midtmorene er en langstrakt morene som oppstår når to isbreer møtes og deres materiale slås sammen (to sidemorener blir til en midtmorene). Midtmorenen kan ligge både over og oppå eksisterende breer, og går parallellt med breens sidekant. Når isen har smeltet fullstendig vil midtmorenen ligge igjen i midten av dalbunnen.
