The Last British-Irish Ice Sheet in Northeast Ireland - AntarcticGlaciers.org

By Dr Alex Clark Why Ireland? Ice sheets provide valuable clues on how they behaved thousands of years in the past through the dramatic landscapes they create. And you may struggle to find a more elab...

Brand new paper (first from my PhD) investigating palaeo-ice sheet dynamics in northeast Ireland: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... -Geomorphological mapping of nearly 13,000 glacial landforms -Flow stage reconstruction of the central BIIS -Freely downloadable shapefiles!

Roaming around Clew Bay, Co. Mayo at the weekend for glacially transported boulders. The clouds parted in the afternoon for views of Croagh Patrick and Clare Island from the Spanish Armada viewpoint ⛰️

Huge congratulations to Dr Alex Clark who has successfully defended his thesis with minor corrections. Alex's thesis is entitled 'A multi-proxy investigation of northeast Irish Ice Sheet dynamics during the Last Glacial-Interglacial Transition' #RHULGeogResearch #RoyalHolloway #PhD #Glaciation

Really enjoyed presenting my research on glacial geomorphology and glaciolacustrine varves at #QRA2025 this week. Thanks to everyone who came and spoke with me! I'm now enjoying the frosty morning train home with my latest @quaternaryra.bsky.social field guide purchase 📖

A valuable experience at this weekend's @quaternaryra.bsky.social GLWG/QERG field meeting in sunny Yorkshire. Learned a lot about glacial sediments, geotechnics, and the energy transition from industry experts!
