40
Q

Benn and Evans

A

41
Q

Dreimanis

A

1953

Land forms and landscapes
- gouges/fratucres/and chatter makes fracture plans can be used to infer ice direction

42
Q

Dahl

A

1965

Land forms and landscapes
- P forms originally thought to be produced by abrasion of plastically deforming ice (debris rich?)

43
Q

Kor et al

A

1991

Land forms and landscapes
- non-generic term ‘s-form preferred’ (than p form as ‘sculptured’), meltwater movement through bed

44
Q

Shaw

A

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
Q

Goldthwaite

A

1979

Land forms and landscapes
- striae were created after the p-forms

46
Q

Boulton

A

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
Q
