A 3D Visualisation Environment Modelling the Evolution of North-West Europe since the Last Glacial Maximum
Theory and Practice of Computer Graphics : This work in progress aims to provide an interactive 3D visualisation allowing real time manipulation of glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA) model output data which reconstructs the ice distribution and coastline position in north-west Europe since the Last...
