Long Island, which was formed by a glacial moraine (the leading edge of the glacier pushing rock, soil and sand).
A landscape feature most likely formed by glacial activity is a U-shaped valley. As glaciers move through mountainous regions, they erode the rock and soil beneath them, carving out this distinctive shape with steep sides and a flat bottom. Other features such as fjords, cirques, and moraines also result from glacial processes, but U-shaped valleys are particularly characteristic of glacial erosion.
Central Park in Manhattan was formed primarily as a result of glacial deposition during the last ice age. The park's landscape features, such as its hills, valleys, and rock formations, were sculpted by the movement of glaciers and the debris they left behind.
You may be thinking of a fjord (or fiord), a narrow, deep inlet (generally in a coastal landscape) formed by glacial activity.
Fjords are estuaries formed by glacial action. They are long, narrow inlets with steep cliffs created by the movement of glaciers. Fjords are typically found in high-latitude regions where glaciers have carved deep valleys into the landscape.
Erratics and drumlins are both types of geological formations associated with glacial activity. Erratics are large boulders transported and deposited by glaciers, often found in areas where the surrounding rock is different from the rock type of the erratic. Drumlins, on the other hand, are elongated hills formed from glacial till that has been shaped by the movement of ice. Both features provide evidence of past glacial movements and help in understanding the dynamics of glacial landscapes.
glacial lakes. These lakes were formed by the meltwater from the ice blocks, and often occupied depressions in the landscape created by glacial activity. They were temporary features that eventually drained as the ice melted away completely.
