Abstract
Buried channels are erosive sedimentary features that can possibly be formed by sub-glacial melt-water circulation. The size of these channels is very variable with widths up to several kilometers and depths from few meters up to several hundreds of meters. Their coarse-gravely, sandy sediment fills act as reservoirs which can be important sources of water or occasionally gas.
