The impact of glaciers on mountain erosion

F Herman, F De Doncker, I Delaney… - Nature Reviews Earth & …, 2021 - nature.com
Glaciers and ice sheets erode mountains and produce vast quantities of sediments that are
delivered to rivers and oceans, impacting global sediment and biogeochemical balances …

Subglacial basins: Their origin and importance in glacial systems and landscapes

SJ Cook, DA Swift - Earth-Science Reviews, 2012 - Elsevier
Closed topographic basins are found beneath contemporary ice masses and within the
footprint of former ice masses in all glaciated regions. We present the first integrated review …

[BUCH][B] Glaciers and glaciation

D Benn, DJA Evans - 2014 - api.taylorfrancis.com
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 …

Glacial effects limiting mountain height

DL Egholm, SB Nielsen, VK Pedersen, JE Lesemann - Nature, 2009 - nature.com
The height of mountain ranges reflects the balance between tectonic rock uplift, crustal
strength and surface denudation. Tectonic deformation and surface denudation are …

Antarctic topography at the Eocene–Oligocene boundary

DS Wilson, SSR Jamieson, PJ Barrett… - Palaeogeography …, 2012 - Elsevier
We present a reconstruction of the Antarctic topography at the Eocene–Oligocene (ca.
34Ma) climate transition. This provides a realistic key boundary condition for modeling the …

A dynamic early East Antarctic Ice Sheet suggested by ice-covered fjord landscapes

DA Young, AP Wright, JL Roberts, RC Warner… - Nature, 2011 - nature.com
The first Cenozoic ice sheets initiated in Antarctica from the Gamburtsev Subglacial
Mountains and other highlands as a result of rapid global cooling∼ 34 million years ago. In …

Antarctic palaeo-ice streams

SJ Livingstone, CÓ Cofaigh, CR Stokes… - Earth-Science …, 2012 - Elsevier
We review the geomorphological, sedimentological and chronological evidence for palaeo-
ice streams on the continental shelf of Antarctica and use this information to investigate …

The Gamburtsev mountains and the origin and early evolution of the Antarctic Ice Sheet

S Bo, MJ Siegert, SM Mudd, D Sugden, S Fujita… - Nature, 2009 - nature.com
Ice-sheet development in Antarctica was a result of significant and rapid global climate
change about 34 million years ago. Ice-sheet and climate modelling suggest reductions in …

A review of topographic controls on moraine distribution

ID Barr, H Lovell - Geomorphology, 2014 - Elsevier
Ice-marginal moraines are often used to reconstruct the dimensions of former ice masses,
which are then used as proxies for palaeoclimate. This approach relies on the assumption …

The evolution of the subglacial landscape of Antarctica

SSR Jamieson, DE Sugden, NRJ Hulton - Earth and Planetary Science …, 2010 - Elsevier
The aim is to investigate the evolution of the subglacial landscape of Antarctica using an ice
sheet and erosion model. We identify different stages of continental glaciation and model the …
