Summary

This is a map of the coastal physiographic type 'Sealoch'. The polygons represent sealochs, glacially-formed inlets (fjords, fjards) of western Scotland and Ireland, including the voes of Shetland. Typically elongate and deepened by glacial action with little freshwater influence. Often with narrows and sills dividing the loch into a series of basins. This includes physiographic feature type - 'Sealoch & Bay' of Loch Scavaig, Slapin & Eishort.
