Synopsis "Glacial Geology "

Glaciers are the massive bodies of ice that are formed from the accumulation of snow over a long period of time. Glacial geology is a scientific study that deals with the natural process that involves glaciers and the natural phenomena that are related to ice. It is an interdisciplinary field that assimilates physical geography, geophysics, geology, climatology, meteorology, etc. There are two types of glaciation, alpine and continental glaciation. The rate of movement of ice depends upon factors such as temperature of the ice, gradient of the slope, thickness of the glacier and sub glacial water dynamics. There are three zones of glaciers, namely, accumulation, ablation and snow line. Study within glaciology includes two major areas namely glacial history and the reconstruction of past glaciation. This field also deals with the study of glacial deposits and glacial erosive features on the landscape. This book unravels the recent studies in the field of glacial geology. It presents researches and studies performed by experts across the globe. Those in search of information to further their knowledge will be greatly assisted by this book.
