This page contains some useful links for Fluvioglacial deposits: those deposited by glacial meltwater.

ESKERS
For an excellent site all about eskers, go to:
http://www.panorama-publishing.com/research/index.shtml
and follow the links to ‘What is an esker’. Also includes details on how to distinguish between different forms of deposit.
Thanks also to Val Vannet for the ESKER image below, taken at Bridge of Cally near Dundee. Click to enlarge.

GENERAL
http://www.tulane.edu/~sanelson/geol111/glaciers.htm – useful general article on this aspect.
DRUMLINS
Not really fluvio-glacial necessarily , but they are in the same sort of area as the other landforms.
http://www.sentex.net/~tcc/drumlin1.html – some useful information on how drumlins are formed – various theories discussed and some useful images
KAMES
One of my favourite recent finds is the work of Pete Robinson. He has produced an excellent illustrated guide to the BALNAGASK HEADLAND, which is situated just to the south of Aberdeen Bay. There are images of the RAISED CLIFFS, KAMES, photos of key ROCK TYPES and more. A very useful site - also CRAG and TAIL.
