Description
Summary:Glaciated margins provide unique archives of past ice-mass change on timescales that cannot be captured by observations of the cryosphere today. They are analogues for modern-day glacial depositional environments, and are integral to solving problems such as the magnitude of ancient glaciations, the location of glaciogenic hydrocarbon reservoir deposits and the distribution of groundwater aquifers.
