Krüger, J.: Glacial geomorphological research at Mýrdalsjökull, Iceland, 1977–86. I: the northern margin. Geografisk Tidsskrift 88:68–77. Copenhagen. 1988. The lithostratigraphic divisions of the glacier forefield are tentatively interpreted as responses to a glacier advance about the middle of the 18th century, a following retreat, and oscillations have been succeeded by a continuous retreat in the present century. Most recently the glacier is re-advancing. During periods of deglaciation the marginal and the exposed subglacial landsystem were modified by glaciofluvial processes in the direction of a proglacial landsystem. Subsequent flows of ice across the area have led to deposition of lodgement tills and renewal of the subglacial landsystem
