We review the major subglacial till forming processes as presently understood by glacial
researchers and define the parameters within which tills are produced and reconcile them …

Abstract The Antarctic Ice Sheet (AIS) is out of equilibrium with the current anthropogenic‐
enhanced climate forcing. Paleoenvironmental records and ice sheet models reveal that the …

Glaciers and Glaciation is the classic textbook for all students of glaciation. Stimulating and
accessible, it has established a reputation as a comprehensive and essential resource. In …

Large ice sheets actively interact with the rest of the climate system by amplifying, pacing,
and potentially driving global climate change over several time scales. Direct and indirect …

Basal zone of the West Antarctic ice streams and its role in lubrication of their rapid motion
Page 160 THE WEST ANTARCTIC ICE SHEET: BEHAVIOR AND ENVIRONMENT ANTARCTIC …

Ice streams are corridors of fast ice flow (ca. 0.8 km/year) within an ice sheet and are
responsible for discharging the majority of the ice and sediment within them. Consequently …

The extent and style of shear deformation in sediments beneath modern glaciers and the
geological evidence for such deformation in deposited sediments are reviewed. New …

We review the geomorphological, sedimentological and chronological evidence for palaeo-
ice streams on the continental shelf of Antarctica and use this information to investigate …

Geophysical and geological data indicate that during the last glacial cycle a palaeo-ice
stream drained the Antarctic Peninsula Ice Sheet (APIS) through Marguerite Bay to the edge …

Marine geological data from the eastern Ross Sea provide compelling evidence that the
West Antarctic Ice Sheet extended to the continental shelf break during the last glacial …
