In West Siberian, widespread glacial disturbances present in permafrost of Pleistocene age suggest that frozen sediments, if clayey and/or icy, can readily deform, thus translating basal glacial stress into sliding of the entire glacier/sediment complex along subglacial shear zones. Ductile deformations such as folds and diapirs are also widespread. The mode of deformation of frozen subglacial sediments is dependent on their lithology, ice content and temperature conditions.
