Topical Working Groups:

Glacier Dynamics
Leaders: D.J.A. Evans (UK; devans@geog.gla.ac.uk) and J. Hart (UK; j.k.hart@soton.ac.uk)
To provide enhanced study and interpretation of subglacial processes including glaciotectonic features at all scales. In particular, to investigate ice movement mechanisms with special reference to the deformation of subglacial material.
Geospatial Analysis of Glaciated Environments (GAGE)
Leaders: J. Aber (USA; aberjame@esumail.emporia.edu), A. Ber (Poland; aber@pgi.waw.pl)
To pursue GIS and remote-sensing techniques for all manner of mapping, analysis, display and interpretation of glaciated terrain, as well as for modelling of glaciers and ice sheets.
Sedimentology of Glaciogenic Deposits
Leaders: A.J. Russell (UK; gga31@cc.keele.ac.uk), D. Krzyszkowski (Poland; darek.krzyszkowski@uni-koeln.de)
To investigate problems of the interpretation of the Quaternary sedimentary record, including examination of time scales in sediment sequences.
Extent and Chronology of Glaciations
Leaders: J. Ehlers (Germany; jehlersqua@aol.com), P. Gibbard (UK; plg1@cus.cam.ac.uk)
To assemble glacial chronologies from around the world to better understand ice sheet volumes and extents at various times, and to compile a GIS supported database for past ice sheet extents.

Regional Working Groups:
The Peribaltic Group
Leader: L. Marks (Poland; lmar@pgi.waw.pl), Secretary: J.A. Piotrowski (Denmark; jan.piotrowski@geo.aau.dk)
To investigate Quaternary history and palaeogeomorphology around the Baltic Sea with special focus on glacial processes, stratigraphy and chronology during the Weichselian Glaciation
Glacial Deposits and Environments in Asia
Leader: Li Jijun (China; lijj@lzu.edu.cn)
To reconstruct glacial history of monsoon Asia with special reference to the problem of the Tibetian Plateau glaciation, its extent, timing and the sedimentary record.
