Oxford Gletscher surge

 

This is a new image from Google Earthy of the surge features on the Oxford Gletscher in East Greenland. This is the one we worked on in 1962.  It has a much better definition than images I have published previously.   Click to enlarge.

The diagnostic feature is the massive loop of moraine left behind when the eastern tributary glacier surged, almost squeezing out the ice from the western tributary.
