Currently, there are only small glaciers in the highest peaks of the Pyrenees that are the legacy of the last cold period that ended at the end of the 19th century: The Little Ice Age. However, an accurate observation of the landscape of the highest peaks and adjacent valleys of the Iberian Peninsula reveals a past shaped by the successive passage of glaciers with hundreds of meters of ice, similar to what happens today in the Alps or Patagonia. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIberian glaciation has resulted in ice expansion through valleys that are now used by the road network and where important populations settle; in addition, large accumulations of sediments deposited by those glaciers are still unstable today and can trigger risks for mountain populations. Iberia, Land of Glaciers presents the impact of the glaciers in the landscape of mountains following a more educational perspective with examples of 21 Iberian massifs written by specialists from each of the areas.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Marc Oliva\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0128219416\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780128219416\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Elsevier\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/22\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 618\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.31lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.25h x 7.50w x 1.25d","brand":"Marc Oliva","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47930640007423,"sku":"9780128219416","price":165.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_bc7b1e56-cd79-4a16-b900-45b7bae4f048.jpg?v=1766343239","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/iberia-land-of-glaciers-marc-oliva-9780128219416","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
