Description for Glacial Sedimentary Processes and Products
Associating ice masses with the transport and deposition of sediments has long formed a central theme in glaciology and glacial geomorphology. The reason for this focus is clear, in that ice masses are responsible for much of the physical landscape which characterizes the Earth's glaciated regions. Editor(s): Hambrey, Michael; Christoffersen, Poul; Glasser, Neil F.; Hubbard, Bryn. Series: International Association of Sedimentologists Series. Num Pages: 436 pages, Illustrations (some col.), maps (some col.). BIC Classification: RB. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 285 x 224 x 23. Weight in Grams: 1438.
Associating ice masses with the transport and deposition of sediments has long formed a central theme in glaciology and glacial geomorphology. The reason for this focus is clear, in that ice masses are responsible for much of the physical landscape which characterizes the Earth's glaciated regions. This association also holds at a variety of scales, for example, from the grain-size characteristics of small-scale moraines to the structural architecture of large-scale, glacigenic sedimentary sequences in both surface and subaqueous environments.
