Glacial Geomorphology at Glasgow
Scottish Geographical Journal, 2009Abstract This paper reviews a century of geographical contributions at the University of Glasgow to the development of glacial geomorphology. Significant advances were made from the 1960s, when geographers and topographic scientists began to combine geomorphic and survey expertise in accurately charting spatial and temporal changes in Icelandic glacier

Most glacial deposits are made of different materials deposited at different times. The surface of the latest deposit is the present land surface — the present geomorphology. The surface of each buried deposit is a surface of paleogeomorphology, either entirely depositional, entirely erosional, or partly of each.

Glacial geomorphology and geographic information systems
Earth-Science Reviews, 2007Recent developments in the field of glacial geomorphology have dramatically increased the need to acquire, maintain, manipulate, and analyze large amounts of landform, landscape and sediment data. The use of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) has provided new platforms and tools for analysis and visualization of geomorphic data.

Student Collaborative Writing Groups: Mapping Glacial Geomorphology and Glacial Sedimentology
Cartographica, 2015In recent years there has been a conscious effort to pro- vide students with an avenue to pursue both self-directed and interdisciplinary studies within their undergraduate education at McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario. This idea was initially stated in McMaster president Patrick Deane's open letter ''Forward with Integrity'' (Deane 2011 ...

Morphometry in Glacial Geomorphology
1982Morphometry consists of the measurement of form either from maps or in the field. It provides quantitative data that can then be analyzed to establish significant aspects of the morpology of the features investigated. As geomorphology is concerned with the understanding of the shape of features, morphometry provides essential material on which to base ...

Glacial geomorphology: modeling processes and landforms
Geomorphology, 1993Abstract The primary goal of glacial geomorphology is to provide physically-based explanations of the past, present and future impacts of glaciers and ice sheets on landform and landscape development. To achieve this requires the integration of studies of landform with studies of the processes responsible for form development (over a wide range of ...
