  1. 1. Glacial lakes in the Torneträsk region, northern Sweden, are key to understanding regional deglaciation patterns and dynamics

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi

    Author : Karlijn Ploeg; [2022]
    Keywords : deglaciation; glacial geomorphology; LiDAR; glacial lakes; Torneträsk;

    Abstract : The prospect of sea level rise due to melting ice sheets affirms the urgency of gaining knowledge on ice sheet dynamics during deglaciation. The Fennoscandian Ice Sheet serves as an analogue, whose retreat can be reconstructed from the geomorphological record. READ MORE

    Author : Robin Blomdin; [2012]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The timing of the ice margin retreat of the Late Glacial Patagonian ice sheet (PIS) in southern Patagonia has been the object of discussion for many years. In order to resolve questions about the complex response of the PIS to past climate change; geological interpretation and modelling data needs evaluation against absolute chronology. READ MORE

    Abstract : This study was carried out to deliver new insight into the late Weichselian landscape development of South Western Scania and to make regional scale glaciation models of South-Western Scandinavia more accurate. The goal of this study is to find out how the latest ice advances affected the study area. READ MORE

  5. 5. Glacial lake deposits in Kerlingarfjöll, Central Iceland

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskap

    Author : Cecilia Möne; [1997]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The extent of glacial lake sediments found north of the Kerlingarfjöll mountains in central Iceland has been determined and their formation in an ice dammed lake is suggested. The damming ice moved from an ice divide in the south-east highlands and was divided into two ice lobes by the Kerlingarfjöll mountains. READ MORE
