Glacial erosion: status and outlook
Annals of Glaciology, 2019 Glacier-erosion rates range across orders of magnitude, and much of this variation cannot be attributed to basal sliding rates. Subglacial till acts as lubricating ‘fault gouge’ or ‘sawdust’, and must be removed for rapid subglacial bedrock erosion. Such

Journal of Glaciology, 2022 Palaeo-glacial landforms can give insights into bed roughness that currently cannot be captured underneath contemporary-ice streams. A few studies have measured bed roughness of palaeo-ice streams but the bed roughness of specific landform assemblages ...

Glacial geomorphology of the Šumava / Bayerischer Wald mountains, Central Europe
Journal of Maps, 2019 During Quaternary glacial periods, the Šumava / Bayerischer Wald mountains were subject to mountain glaciations. Recent studies have focussed mainly on the several well-developed cirques.

Submarginal drumlin formation and late Holocene history of Fláajökull, southeast Iceland
Annals of Glaciology, 2016 Fláajökull is a non-surging outlet glacier draining the south-eastern part of the Vatnajökull, southeast Iceland. Fláajökull was stationary or advanced slightly between 1966 and 1995 and formed a prominent end moraine.

The glacial geomorphology of the Mackenzie Mountains region, Canada
Journal of Maps, 2023 During the Last Glacial Maximum, the Mackenzie Mountains region was glaciated by three distinct ice sources; the Laurentide Ice Sheet, the Cordilleran Ice Sheet, and independent montane glaciers. Rapid ice sheet thinning of the Laurentide-Cordilleran ice

Glacial geomorphology of the Brabazon & Butler Downs, Rangitata Valley, South Island, New Zealand
Journal of Maps, 2017 The inland valleys of New Zealand’s South Island were heavily glaciated during the last glacial cycle. Subsequent fluvial incision has eroded out glacial deposits from the valleys in many locations, making it difficult to reconstruct glacial dynamics and

Submarine geomorphology of the northeastern Baffin Island fiords and cross-shelf troughs
Journal of Maps, 2019 This paper presents a series of 50 geomorphological maps of the seabed of northeastern Baffin Island fiords and cross-shelf troughs, in eastern Arctic Canada. The mapping was produced using swath bathymetry imagery from multiple bathymetry datasets.
