Investigations have been made of the geomorphology, internal structure, and till fabric of small drumlins in a drumlin field exposed in front of the retreating northern part of Mýrdalsjökull, Iceland. The drumlins either comprise... more

An exposure in a Late Pleistocene drumlin near Kingscourt, Ireland, provides a good insight into some of the processes that give rise to such subglacial bedforms. The drumlin is located on a ridge, cored by red sandstone of Carboniferous... more

Satellite imagery of Donegal Bay, northwestern Ireland, reveals two streamlined subglacial bedform sets produced during the late Devensian glaciation (ca. 22,000–15,000 yrs B.P.). The first bedform set trends northeast-southwest and... more

Large-scale drumlins occur abundantly throughout central and northern Sweden. Whereas many drumlins in the north are an integral part of a relict glacial landscape >100,000 years old, those to the south are generally interpreted as of... more

Subglacial landforms across various scales preserve the history of movement, deposition and erosion by the last great ice sheets and their meltwater. The origin of many of these landforms is, however, contentious. In this chapter these... more
