1. A re-investigation of hummocky moraine formed from ice sheet decay using geomorphological and sedimentological evidence in the Vomb area, southern Sweden
University essay from Lunds universitet/Geologiska institutionenAbstract : Glacial sediment-landform assemblages have long been used to reconstruct the dynamics of ice sheets throughout the Quaternary time period, particularly so for the period of the last glaciation in northern Europe and southern Scandinavia. One such sediment-landform assemblage is hummocky moraine, which has previously been used as an all-encompassing descriptive terminology strongly associated with dead ice meltout and passive deglaciation.

2. Digitizing and Mapping Channel Heads Across Various Forested Regions in Sweden Using a High-Resolution DEM : A Regional Analysis of How Landscape Properties Influencing Channel Head Initiation
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaperAbstract : Acting as a hydrological link between the terrestrial landscape and the larger downstream river network, channel heads and their immediate headwaters are essential geomorphological features in our landscape. Not only due to their ability to transport water and sediment and cycling of nutrients, but as an important component for ecosystem productivity and aquatic habitats. READ MORE

3. Foreland evolution of Blåisen, Norway, over the course of an ablation season
University essay from Lunds universitet/Geologiska institutionenAbstract : This study presents a detailed investigation into the evolution of sedimentary landforms over an ablation season at Blåisen, an outlet of the Hardangerjøkulen Icecap, Norway. The two visits to Blåisen, one each side of the ablation season, allowed the preservation and evolution of the landforms to be studied. READ MORE
