Glaciers can form distinct landforms through erosion of the landscape such as corries. Glaciers also deposit material to form unique landforms such as drumlins. Glaciated landscapes are a source ...
New images from the North Sea show never-before-seen landforms that were carved by a single, colossal ice sheet 1 million ...
An international team of researchers, including a glaciologist at Newcastle University, UK, has discovered remarkably well-preserved glacial landforms buried almost 1 km beneath the North Sea.
"This specific type of glacial landform is called a pothole ... which result from erosion of the bedrock beneath the ice sheet, Nixon said. "P-forms are created by meltwater full of abrasive ...
Grounded ice sheets move sediment around as they grow and shrink, creating erosional and depositional landforms from which scientists can reconstruct a region's glacial past. "When the ice is ...
Researchers have discovered huge landforms deep beneath the North Sea that suggest the region was swallowed by a giant ice sheet toward the middle of the last ice age. The scientists captured ...
