Subglacial till: Formation, sedimentary characteristics and classification (2006)
Journal Article
Evans, D., Phillips, E., Hiemstra, J., & Auton, C. (2006). Subglacial till: Formation, sedimentary characteristics and classification. Earth-Science Reviews, 78(1-2), 115-176. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.earscirev.2006.04.001

We review the major subglacial till forming processes as presently understood by glacial researchers and define the parameters within which tills are produced and reconcile them with sedimentary end members. Processes of deformation, flow, sliding, l... Read More about Subglacial till: Formation, sedimentary characteristics and classification.

A critical assessment of subglacial mega-floods: A case study of glacial sediments and landforms in south-central Alberta, Canada (2006)
Journal Article
Evans, D., Rea, B., Hiemstra, J., & Ó Cofaigh, C. (2006). A critical assessment of subglacial mega-floods: A case study of glacial sediments and landforms in south-central Alberta, Canada. Quaternary Science Reviews, 25(13-14), 1638-1667. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.quascirev.2005.12.007

The existing subglacial megaflood explanation of glacial sediment deposition and landform production in south-central Alberta relies upon four sets of observations and associated interpretations: (1) a subglacial genesis for all glacilacustrine sedim...
