Glacial
Geology: Ice sheets and
landforms,
Second Edition has been thoroughly revised and
updated throughout and provides a modern, comprehensive summary of glacial geology and
geomorphology. The book clearly outlines glacial
landforms
and sediments and provides the
reader with the tools required to interpret glacial landscapes. It describes how glaciers work
and how the processes of glacial erosion and deposition which operate within them are recorded
in the glacial landscape.
The Second Edition is presented in the same clear and concise format as the First Edition, providing
detailed explanations that are not cluttered with unnecessary detail. Additions include a new
chapter on
Glaciations
around the Globe, demonstrating the range of glacial environments present
on Earth today and a new chapter on Palaeoglaciology, explaining how glacial
landforms
and
sediments are used in ice-sheet reconstructions. Text boxes are used throughout to explain key
concepts and to introduce students to case study material from the glacial literature. Newly updated
sertions on Further Reading are also included at the end of each chapter to point the reader towards
key references. The book is illustrated throughout with colour photographs and illustrations.
•
Includes two new chapters covering
Glaciation
around the Globe
and Palaeoglaciology
Now illustrated in full colour throughout
Includes information boxes, chapter summaries and further reading throughout
All existing chapters fully revised and updated to include new literature
Clear presentation of conceptual diagrams to illustrate complex spatial and
temporal variations in processes/landforms
Retains a strong focus on sediments and
landforms
Written at an accessible level suitable for all undergraduate students taking
courses in glacial geology
