Abstract
Synopsis: A complex system of fluvioglacial landforms, which is part of more widespread evidence of ice sheet wastage in Upper Speyside, is described and discussed. The pattern of features that has been developed is shown to be dependent on a range of local environmental factors as well as on the changing physical condition of the ice. Three distinctive phases of ice wastage, each related to different meltwater outlets, are identified.Keywords
