What glacial features results from deposition?
A glacial deposit is known as a moraine. A moraine may form a dam, keeping back the glacial melt-water, forming a series of lakes.
What is moraine erosion or deposition?
moraine is a sedimentary rock. All sedimentary rocks are formed from the deposition of eroded sediments, pebbles, boulders... etc. Morain is a glacial deposit. As a glacier moves over the land it erodes and transports bits of rock. When the glacier melts it deposits these bits of rock to form morain.
