Vast, majestic, and often stunningly beautiful, glaciers lock up some 10% of the world's freshwater. These great bodies of ice play an important part in the Earth system, carving landscapes and influencing climate on regional and hemispheric scales, as well as having a significant impact on global sea level. Throughout time, the Earth has experienced various major glaciations in its deep history, long before the ice ages of the Quaternary, and the observed effects of climate change on glaciers have recently brought them to the forefront of public attention.

This Very Short Introduction offers an overview of glaciers and ice sheets as systems, considering the role of geomorphology and sedimentology in studying them, and their impacts on our planet in terms of erosional and depositional processes. Looking at our glaciers today, and their ongoing processes, David Evans considers the extent to which we can use this knowledge in reconstructing and interpreting ancient glacial landscapes.

I am pleased. I like this shirt!
Color: All Black, Size: Medium
I put this shirt on right away. It's breathable, lightweight, stretchy, and well-made. I bought the black one, and the fit is perfect, even though it's polyester. I usually prefer natural fibers, but I love the design and the reduced price, so I bought one. The mock turtleneck is comfortably fitted and comfortable around the neck. The short sleeve cuffs hug the biceps nicely. There may be some negative reviews, but not from me. I just bought another one in navy blue, medium. I tried on the shirt with a sports jacket, a bomber, and three different lightweight zip-up jackets, and it goes well with all of them. I still prefer natural fibers, but I also like the Coofandy brand. I have purchased their shirts made of natural fibers as well. The quality is consistent. I ordered and received another shirt in blue. It's a different kind of knit, but fits like a glove. Soft and stretchy, sleeves fit my biceps, and the color hugs the neck close and gently. These shirts are the best!

Great mock turtleneck sweater at an even greater price!
Color: All Black, Size: X-Large
The short sleeve mock turtleneck sweater is made of a comfortable, quality material and looks good. I’m 6’3” and 240 lbs and the XL was a perfect fit. The price point is excellent and I have had great experience with other purchases from Coofandy so I would highly recommend this item.
