Focusing on the impact of glacial ice on Earth's landscapes, this compact textbook explores the processes shaping these environments, particularly in Central Europe and Iceland. It examines the traces left by glaciers and their meltwaters, providing insights into formation processes and the reconstruction of recent climate history, especially during the Ice Age. Through numerous regional examples, readers gain a deeper understanding of the significant fluctuations in global temperatures and the role of ice in shaping our planet's geography.
