Which of these California geologic features formed as the result of erosion by glaciers?
Yosemite Valley is a California geologic feature that formed as a result of erosion by glaciers. The glaciers carved out the U-shaped valley, leaving behind steep granite walls and beautiful waterfalls. Other examples include the glacially-carved cirques and hanging valleys in the Sierra Nevada mountain range.
What geologic processes formed the main features of the California landscape?
Some of the features of the California landscape formed as the result of tectonic processes that took place deep beneath the surface. Wind Water ice and Other agents of erosion at the surface carved other features of the landscape
Why is erosion by running water important to deserts?
because erosion by running water forms the unique geologic features found in deserts.
What happens when glaciers go through erosion?
Glaciers do not go through erosion, they erode.
Do many geologic processes and events happen because of erosion?
they are not do to erosion.

How are glaciers and erosion the same and different?
Well glaciers are big chunks of ice and glacial erosion is the erosion caused by glaciers
What happens when glaciers go through erosion?
Glaciers do not go through erosion, they erode.
What causes erosion to occur magnets or glaciers?
Magnets do not play any role in erosion. Glaciers are ony of many things that cause erosion.
Do many geologic processes and events happen because of erosion?
they are not do to erosion.
What happens when glacial erosion occurs?
U-shaped valleys are a result of alpine glacial movement. Bedrock is scoured and plucked by continental glaciers. A number of depositional features are a result of the movement and depositing of rock, sand and dust associated with glaciers.
Are glaciers formed by erosion?
yes
What does wind water and glaciers?
erosion
What type of erosion formed?
Glaciers
How does glaciers couse erosion?
I'm not sure if I'm right with this but I think glaciers cause erosion when they melt? I'm honestly not sure.
