They are found in the coldest places, in Polar regions and on mountains. Glaciers can form distinct landforms through erosion of the landscape such as corries. Glaciers also deposit material to ...

Repeated episodes of glaciation have left Glacier with an abundance of distinctive glacial landforms. There are "cirques," the bowl-shaped depressions on mountainsides that were once occupied by ...

Seismic technology has revealed secrets of the Earth from a million years ago. During the Mid-Pleistocene Transition (MPT), the Earth adopted a 100,000-year glacial-interglacial cycle compared to the ...

Grounded ice sheets move sediment around as they grow and shrink, creating erosional and depositional landforms from which ...

Grounded ice sheets move sediment around as they grow and shrink, creating erosional and depositional landforms from which scientists can reconstruct a region's glacial past. "When the ice is ...

A generic term for the range of longitudinal and transverse landforms produced at the base of a glacier or ice sheet as a result of active ice flow across a sediment base. Whilst individual types of ...

Geophysical surveys have shown that ice-rich permafrost is not limited to rock glaciers but is also present in other permafrost landforms. This finding underscores the need to consider all forms ...

Massive ice age landforms have been uncovered beneath the North Sea, offering insights into past glacial movements.
