Published in 2022 at "Canadian Journal of Earth Sciences"

DOI: 10.1139/cjes-2022-0048

Abstract: Glacial sediment research using thin sections began post-1945. Microsedimentology examines sediments at the microscopic level deriving insights into the processes of glacial erosion, transport, and deposition. Two issues exist (1) the difficulty by some in… read more here.
