The other dominating Quaternary deposits in the s district are marine clays and silts, which make up the sediments between the moraine ridges. Basal till is almost entirely lacking between the ice marginal deposits, and the bedrock is exposed in the highest areas.
Moraine is dominated by mud-rich till and poorly sorted debris flows.
Hydrogeological investigations indicate that glaciofluvial material occurs, but no large bodies of sorted material are identified. The small share of sorted sediments makes the basis for the farm wells and are the only permeable sediments in the area. The Agricultural University is built on a ground which belonged to some of the largest farms in the area, and on the best agricultural land. The best farmland was the sandy soil of the ice marginal deposits, which was easy to cultivate and which became dry and warm early in the spring compared to the marine silt and clay. The southern slopes of the moraine ridges are still the most favourable locations for growing vegetables and fruit.
