Ice-marginal ridge relief complex in northern Kola Peninsula (NW Russia): morphology, structure, and genetic interpretation [PDF]
Bulletin of the Geological Society of FinlandA widely spread ridge relief complex was formed by the last ice cover in the northeastern part of the Kola Peninsula. The complex belongs to the ice-marginal formations of the ice streams of the north-eastern Fennoscandian Ice Sheet.

Pleistocene glaciation of Fenland, England, and its implications for evolution of the region [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2018 Detailed investigation of landforms and their underlying deposits on the eastern margin of Fenland, East Anglia, demonstrated that they represent a series of glaciofluvial delta-fan and related sediments.

Glacial landforms and late Cenozoic history of the weatern Sor-Rondane Mountains
Antarctic Record, 1992 The western Sor-Rondane Mountains with the exception of several high peaks were once covered by the ice sheet. The mountains are in some places covered with tills weathered in various degrees.

Three-dimensional interpretation of geophysical and geotechnical investigation of landslides [PDF]
Archives of Civil EngineeringEffective engineering design of structures requires a thorough understanding of the groundwater conditions of the substrate. In some situations, a three-dimensional survey is necessary. Landslides are examples of such cases.

Insights into glacial processes from micromorphology of silt-sized sediment [PDF]
The CryosphereSilt-rich meltwater plume deposits (MPDs) analyzed from marine sediment cores have elucidated relationships that are clearly connected, yet difficult to constrain, between subglacial hydrology, ice-marginal landforms, and grounding-zone retreat patterns ...
