Numerical modelling of sediment delivery from tidewater glaciers to the marine environment

Glaciated fjords are dynamic sedimentary environments with high deposition rates, thus providing high-resolution sedimentary records of deglaciation. This thesis introduces two numerical models, SedBerg and SedPlume, developed to simulate marine sedimentation from tidewater glaciers for the dominant...
