Contents
1. The Myrdalsjokull Ice Cap, Iceland. Glacial processes, sediments and landforms on an active volcano – an introduction (J. Kruger, A.
Schomacker and K.H. Kj?r). 2. Katla and Eyjafjallajokull volcanoes (E. Sturkell, P. Einarsson, F. Sigmundsson, A. Hooper, B.G. Ofeigsson,
H. Geirsson and H. Olafsson). 3. Katla - tephrochronology and eruption history (G. Larsen). 4. Deglaciation and Holocene glacial history
of Iceland (O. Ingolfsson, H. Nor?dahl and A. Schomacker). 5. Variations of Myrdalsjokull during postglacial and historical times (O.
Sigur?sson). 6. Ice-marginal environments: geomorphic and structural genesis of marginal moraines at Myrdalsjokull (J. Kruger, A. Schomacker
and I.O. Benediktsson). 7. Dead-ice environments: a landsystems model for a debris-charged, stagnant lowland glacier margin, Kotlujokull
(J. Kruger, K.H. Kj?r and A. Schomacker). 8. Subglacial environments, sediments and landforms at the margins of Myrdalsjokull (A. Schomacker,
K.H. Kj?r and J. Kruger). 9. Evidence for subglacial deformation and deposition during a complete advance-stagnation cycle of Kotlujokull,
Iceland – a case study (K.E.S. Klint, N. Richardt and J. Kruger). 10. Myrdalsjokull?s forefields under the microscope. The micromorphology
of meltout and subglacial tills (J.J.M. van der Meer, S.J. Carr and K.H. Kj?r). 11. Volcanogenic jokulhlaups (glacier outburst floods)
from Myrdalsjokull: impacts on proglacial environments (A.J. Russell, R. Duller and N.P. Mountney)
