Cold region sediments and landforms provide important information about the dimensions, distribution and dynamics of ice sheets and glaciers. Some of these sediment-landform associations are known only from the palaeo-record: for example, from drained lake floors, mountains, continental shelves, or from the former beds of large mid-latitude ice sheets. This record can be used to understand palaeo-ice-mass extent and dynamics, reconstruct climate, and refine our understanding of the future response of ice sheets and glaciers to variations in climate. The aim of this session is to bring together researchers working on cold region sediments and/or landforms, with a view to reconstructing Quaternary glaciations. We invite contributions from those investigating both onshore and offshore cold region sediments and/or landforms at all scales (macro-, meso-, micro-), and from all parts of the world. Studies adopting a multi-disciplinary approach (e.g. field, laboratory, remote sensing/GIS, drones, modelling etc.) are particularly welcome.
