Rates of Glacial Abrasion ,[object Object],During the 1970s Geoffrey Boulton, a leading glacial geomorphologist, fixed rock plates (composed of marble) in front of moving ice at the base of two glaciers. After the glacier had overridden the plates they were removed and inspected (Table 1).  Table   1. Rates of glacial abrasion. Source Boulton 1974.  Source:  http://www.bgrg.org/pages/education/alevel/coldenvirons/Lesson%2010.htm Look at the figures in the table above for the Breidamerkurjokull glacier – which of the factors appears to be most important? Ice thickness or velocity? 250 ma -1 100 m 36 mma -1 Glacier d Argentiere (France)  15.4 ma -1   32 m 3.75 mma -1 Brei  amerkerjokull 3 19.5 ma -1 15 m 3.4 mma -1 Brei  amerkerjokull 2 9.6 ma -1 40 m 3 mma -1   Brei  amerkerjokull 1 (Iceland) Velocity Ice thickness Abrasion rate Glacier
