“…The understanding of the specific depositional processes, the resultant facies, and their spatial distribution within glacially influenced subaqueous environments has been developed from various glaciolacustrine settings (e.g. Clemmensen & Houmark-Nielsen, 1981;Teller & Clayton, 1983;Thomas, 1984;Smith & Ashley, 1985;Eyles & Clark, 1988;Fyfe, 1990;Martini, 1990;Mastalerz, 1990;Sharpe & Cowan, 1990;Gorrell & Shaw, 1991;Martini & Brookfield, 1995;Ashley, 1995;Teller, 1995;Brookfield & Martini, 1999;Bennett et al, 2002;Knudsen & Marren, 2002;Lajeunesse & Michel, 2002;Richards, 2002;Russell & Arnott, 2003;Johnsen & Brennand, 2006). Depositional processes and the resulting facies architecture are highly variable because the margins of ice-contact lakes continually change as glaciers advance or retreat and as ice melts and sediment is released.…”
