I& #39;ve been asked about & #39;ellipsoidal lakes& #39; - erosional basins filled with lakes, with typical case study of Laurentide Ice Sheet. It& #39;s really not something that I& #39;ve seen in the literature. Does anyone have any good information on these features? #glacial #geomorphology #ALevel
ping @ChrisClarkofBC @annalchughes @living_stephen @MikeBDurham @glacio_cook @Alpinesciences @icy_pete @GlacierResearch If someone can point me in the direction of some literature I& #39;ll write an article for AntarcticGlaciers
Apparently these features are in the OCR A Level spec, and students can be asked about them, but there is very little online to support teaching this.
So far I can find only one article using this specific term... from 1972... https://pubs.geoscienceworld.org/gsabulletin/article-lookup/83/4/1037">https://pubs.geoscienceworld.org/gsabullet...
I think it includes the Finger Lakes in New York... any ideas ping @Diamictite @Jamie_Woodward_ @drkatewinter @mikekapglacier @IceSheetMike @realglacier
