Retreat Pattern of Glaciers Controls the Occurrence of Turbidity Currents on High‐Latitude Fjord Deltas (Eastern Baffin Island)

Glacier and ice sheet mass loss as a result of climate change is driving important coastal changes in Arctic fjords. Yet limited information exists for Arctic coasts regarding the influence of glacial erosion and ice mass loss on the occurrence and character of turbidity currents in fjords, which themselves affect delta dynamics. Here we show how glacial erosion and the production of meltwaters and sediments associated with the melting of...
