The location and behaviour of ice streams is one of the most important controls on ice sheet configuration and stability. In order to reconstruct former ice sheets we need to know ice …
Glaciers and Glaciation is the classic textbook for all students of glaciation. Stimulating and accessible, it has established a reputation as a comprehensive and essential resource. In …
A general classification of subglacially-deformed materials is proposed, based on sediment properties and their relationship to styles of subglacial strain. Deformation till is defined as …
A series of publications purport to provide evidence that the Earth was subjected to an extraterrestrial event or events at∼ 12.9 ka creating an environmental cataclysm and the …

The extent and style of shear deformation in sediments beneath modern glaciers and the geological evidence for such deformation in deposited sediments are reviewed. New …
Ice sheets flowing across a sedimentary bed usually produce a landscape of blister-like landforms streamlined in the direction of the ice flow and with each bump of the order of 102 …
It has been suggested that extremely long subglacial bedforms (eg attenuated drumlins and mega‐scale glacial lineations) record former areas of fast‐flowing ice and that bedform …
This book is a comprehensive overview of the ever-captivating field of glaciation from the perspective of glacial landsystems. This approach models the many processes, forms and …
This paper evaluates current knowledge of Laurentide eskers in Canada in the light of developments in glacier hydrology and glacial sedimentology. Questions regarding the …
