It is run by the Royal Geographical Society and led by David Anderson, a physical geographer who teaches at Eton College and has written A Level textbooks on glacial environments. The session covers glacial geomorphology and its landforms, with examples from the UK and elsewhere, then how glaciers influence and respond to climate across timescales and the current state of the world's glaciers. It also includes first principles for those new to the topic, new research for the more confident, and a focus on ways of teaching glaciation.", "url": "https://noky.io/en/london/events/glaciers-landscapes-and-climate-concepts-for-a-level-teachin-135199/", "official_url": "https://www.rgs.org/events/upcoming-events/glaciers-landscapes-climate-a-level-teaching/", "image": "https://noky.io/images/8f48d259fb946ac91be277a0fd066c59c8e1211a0035a375c3ca5c6b4018bfe5-2000.webp", "dates": [{"start": "2026-11-10T16:30:00Z", "end": null, "place": "Royal Geographical Society", "address": "Kensington Gore 1, SW7 2AR London", "tickets": ""}], "similar": [{"title": "Nelder Fellow lecture series – Prof Ed Bueler (University of Alaska Fairbanks)", "start": "2026-11-17T15:00:00Z", "end": "2026-11-17T16:00:00Z", "place": "Imperial College London", "address": "Exhibition Road, SW7 2AZ London", "price": "Free", "price_from": "0.00", "price_to": "0.00", "category": "talks-readings", "tags": ["nature/climate/glaciers", "science/mathematics"], "description": "A free, open-to-all lecture at Imperial College London, part of a four-part Nelder Fellow lecture series held on Tuesday afternoons.
