Synopsis
Sediments are the most valuable form of physical evidence for past Earth surface processes. They have the potential to build up an archive of events and provide a window into the past. Through careful examination of sediments the shifting patterns of surface processes across space and time are revealed, allowing us to reconstruct past environments and environmental change. This book is a guide to the standard techniques employed to read the sedimentary record of former glaciers and ice sheets.
