Über den Autor
Roger LeB. Hooke is a Research Professor in the School of Earth and Climate Sciences and the Climate Change Institute at the University of Maine, Orono. He has been involved in glaciological research for over thirty years, focusing on processes relevant to the origin of glacial landforms. In addition to the first and second editions of Principles of Glacier Mechanics (1st edition, 1997, 2nd edition, 2005), he has published over 100 research papers in journals such as the Geological Society of America Bulletin, Geology, the Journal of Glaciology, Quaternary Research, and the Journal of Geology.
