The M�yrdalsj�okull Ice Cap, Iceland : glacial processes, sediments and landforms on an active volcano /

Existing lowland ice caps are usually considered the best analogues for formerly glaciated areas and as such Icelandic glaciers have been intensively investigated with regard to process-orientated sediment-landform interrelationships. Much work has been directed towards understanding the interaction...
