a glacier valley forms from the pieces of ice that the glacier leaves behind when it broken down thats all i realy know
What else can I help you with?
What forms when a glacier erodes a river valley?
Fiords and glacial lakes
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?
If it is inundated by the sea it is called a "Fjord", if not is just a glacial valley.
What is a glacial trough and how does it form?
A glacial trough is a U-shaped valley carved out by a glacier as it moves downhill. It forms through a process called glacial erosion where the glacier scours and deepens the valley over time by plucking and grinding the bedrock beneath it. The vast weight and movement of the glacier cause it to scrape and shape the landscape into a distinctive U-shaped trough.
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?
A U-Shaped Valley is formed by glacial erosion.
What is a bowl-shaped depression at the head of a glacial valley called?
A bowl-shaped depression at the head of a glacial valley is called a cirque or a corrie. It is typically formed by the erosion of a glacier.
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.
Deeply carved glacial valley along the Scandinavian coast?
Fjord :)
What kind of physical systems led to Yosemite valley?
