31
Vaughan and Arthern
2007 glacier and ice sheet modelling - difficulty of predicting ice sheets
32
Alley et al
2003 glacier erosion processes - effect of water, slope and till on erosion
33
Benn and Evans
2010 glacier erosion processes - different scales of erosional landforms, models of friction
34
Bennet and Glasser
2009 glacier erosion processes - glacial abrasion (Boulton model, Hallet model), G plucking and G MW erosion
35
Bennett and Glasser
2009 landforms and landscapes of G erosion -each feature in lecture
36
sudden and John
1976 landforms and landscapes of G erosion -general
37
Greenwood et al

38
Boulton
1979 landforms and landscapes of G erosion -deformable or resistant substratum
39
Boulton and Hindmarsh
1987 landforms and landscapes of G erosion -horizon A and B
40
Benn and Evans
1998 Land forms and landscapes - 4 types of small scale erosional forms: striae, rat tails, gouges/fractures/chattermarks, P forms
41
Dreimanis
1953 Land forms and landscapes - gouges/fratucres/and chatter makes fracture plans can be used to infer ice direction
42
Dahl
1965 Land forms and landscapes - P forms originally thought to be produced by abrasion of plastically deforming ice (debris rich?)
43
Kor et al
1991 Land forms and landscapes - non-generic term 's-form preferred' (than p form as 'sculptured'), meltwater movement through bed
44
Shaw
1988 Land forms and landscapes - fluvial explanation of S (/P) bedforms !! morphological similarity to scour marks eroded by water, due to overall appearance from a distance - tortuous appearance: ice doesn't flow like that, must be MW - scour mark appearance: analogues to fluvial bedrooms - striated surface: ice erosion occurred afterwards
45
Goldthwaite
1979 Land forms and landscapes - striae were created after the p-forms
46
Boulton
1974 Land forms and landscapes - ice erosion explanation for P/(S) forms!! P forms observed with debris rich basal ice in situ - scour mark appearance: fluvial erosion occurred afterwards - striated surface: can not be formed by MW - tortuous appearance: evidence of ice flowing like that in situ
47
Rea and Whalley
1994 Land forms and landscapes - P forms associated with ice turning corners
48
Sugden et al
1992 Land forms and landscapes - RMs tend to form under thin ice with fluctuating water pressures - Bed rock structure important
49
Roberts et al
2005 Land forms and landscapes - bedrock structure importantt to RMs
50
Lane et al
2014 Land forms and landscapes - bedrock structure important to RMs
