“…Landforms related to glacier surges in submarine settings have been described from several Spitsbergen fjords [3,10,29,63,66,67]. The landform models suggested thus far include overridden recessional moraines, (mega-scale) glacial lineations, terminal moraines with associated sediment lobes on their distal slopes, eskers, annual push moraines and crevasse-squeeze ridges, the latter suggested to be the only feature diagnostic of a glacier surge [66,71]. The high detail preserved in submarine environments offers invaluable insights into the processes controlling landform genesis, and, together with lithological records from sediment cores, enables a better understanding of tidewater glacier sedimentation and dynamics (e.g.…”
