Does a you shaped valley indicate glacial erosion?
A 'U' shaped valley indicates glacial erosion.
What name is given to a coastal valley sculpted by glacial action?
A fjord is a coastal valley that has been carved out by glacial action.
What are the types of features that form from glacial erosion?
Glacial Erosion formed Yosemite Valley and the Sierra Nevada
Which is not a feature created by glacial deposits?
hanging valley
Which valley are 'U' shaped valley?
'U'-shaped valleys are typically formed by glacial erosion. Examples of such valleys include Yosemite Valley in California, and the Great Lakes region in North America.
How does the shape of a stream valley compare to the shape of a glacial valley?
A stream valley typically has a V-shape, while a glacial valley has a U-shape. This difference in shape is due to the different erosional processes involved. Stream valleys are eroded mainly by flowing water, while glacial valleys are shaped by the movement of glaciers that scrape and pluck rock and sediment.
Is a U-shaped valley constructive or destructive?
A U-shaped valley is considered a glacial landform resulting from the erosive action of a glacier. It is classified as a destructive force as the glacier carves and deepens the valley by plucking, abrasion, and glacial erosion.
Difference in shape of a typical stream carved valley compared to a typical glacial carved valley?
River/stream cut valleys are 'V' shaped while Glacial valleys are 'U' shaped.
