| Title: | Ice cliffs at the seaward margin of the Courtauld Glacier, East Greenland |
| Description: | The ice cliffs at the seaward margin of the heavily-crevassed Courtauld Glacier, East Greenland, rise about 40 m above the sea-surface. The dark debris bands, or medial moraines, on the ice surface are produced from rockfall onto the glacier as ice flows past the surrounding mountains. |
