Glaciers and Glacial Geology: 
A hypertext for the appreciation of glaciers, and how they work

By the students in Geology 445 - Glacial Geology - Spring, 1999
Montana State University - Bozeman
THIS PROJECT WILL BE CHANGING RAPIDLY UNTIL MAY, 1999, AND SLOWLY THEREAFTER!

Organization:

This hypertext begins with an introductory overview of the major topics in glaciology and glacial geology.  Each topic is linked to a Web page intended to discuss that topic at a level appropriate for first-year university students.  Those pages are linked where appropriate to recognize the intimate interrelationships among topics, rather than linear connections between them.  Each page allows the option to continue upward into a more advanced discussion of the topic at hand or onward into discussion of the next topic at the same level.  Links in the pages will follow a consistent format: standard text links to link locally to a continuous thread (within our pages), italicized links to go to a glossary, bold links to link outside the document, and bold italic links to link to an example (a box, a photograph, an exercise, or other supporting material).
