Experts have created a visualisation that shows how the Scottish city of Dundee would have looked almost 20,000 years ago - when much of northern Britain was trapped beneath an ice sheet. The visualisations, made by glaciologist Max Van Wyk de Vries of the University of Minnesota and design expert Kieran Duncan of the University of Dundee, when the former became unexpectedly stuck in Scotland with his girlfriend during the Covid-19 lockdown. The ice sheet over Dundee - which in visualisations resembles 'The Wall' from Game of Thrones - would have lasted until around 15,000 years ago, when the planet warmed and its retreat carved out landmarks including Dundee Law and the Tay estuary. Their visualisations show the extent of the ice sheet from above, the likely height of the ice sheet compared to today???s Dundee, as well as images that show what the ice would have looked like when overlaid on images of the Scottish city. The researchers' completed, three-minute-long visualisation is featuring in the 'Time & Tide: The Transformation of the Tay' exhibition at The McManus: Dundee's Art Gallery and Museum until October 3, 2021.
