A surficial geology and geomorphology map of the Satujökull foreland of the northern Hofsjökull ice cap in central Iceland provides a clear signature of spatial and temporal change in glacial landsystem signatures as a result of complex glacier behaviour in the historical period. Landsystem 1, indicative of polythermal conditions, comprises a wide arc of ice-cored moraine and controlled moraine ridges lying outside a fluted and drumlinized terrain and demarcates the historical Little Ice Age maximum limit. Landsystem 2 contains most of the diagnostic criteria for the surging glacier landsystem and records two separate surges by the western margin of Satujökull in the period since the attainment of the Little Ice Age maximum advance
