Glacial Geology: Ice Sheets and Landforms provides a modern, comprehensive summary of glacial geology. It is presented in a clear and concise format, which is not cluttered with unnecessary detail. During the Late Cenozoic period much of the northern hemisphere was extensively glaciated. This had a profound effect on the nature of the landscape. In order to understand this landscape one must be able to identify and interpret the glacial landforms and sediments from which it is composed. These landforms and sediments tell a unique part of the story of the Cenozoic Ice Age. This book is about these landforms and sediments and provides the reader with the tools with which to interpret them. It shows how glaciers work and how the processes of glacial erosion and deposition which operate within them are recorded in the glacial landscape.

Bennett, Matthew R.

John Wiley&Sons, Inc.

A comprehensive and foundational exploration of glacial geology and geomorphology In the newly revised third edition of Glacial Geology: Ice Sheets, Glaciers and Landforms, a team of distinguished researchers delivers a thoroughly modern summary of glacial geology and geomorphology. An essential text for students and researchers interested in the landforms and sediments that make up glacial landscapes, the book outlines the key concepts and tools necessary for a full understanding of how glaciers work and how the processes of glacial erosion and deposition operate. The book is concisely and clearly organized, containing a range of information on the glacial environments present on today???s Earth. It also includes a chapter on palaeoglaciology, offers text boxes throughout the book to explain critical ideas, and has newly updated Further Reading sections that recommend additional resources and references.
