Glaciers in the High Arctic and High Himalaya are experiencing profound and accelerating change in response to warming. In this presentation, using stunning imagery from field expeditions, Dr Phil Porter will present some of the latest research findings from these high latitude and high altitude environments, linking field research findings, to systems and processes aspects of ‘A’ level curricula, while also considering the human impacts associated with deglaciation. Phil will also provide some examples of interactive teaching techniques that can be used in the classroom to help bring alive the teaching of glacial systems and landscapes.
