How does ice erosion work?
when ice moves and erodes the land
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
How do wind water and ice change the land?
water and ice and wind change the mountains by erosion
Can ice cause weathering and erosion?
Ice, as glaciers during the ice-ages, scoured mountains and formed 'U' shaped valleys.
What type of sedimentary rock is formed from deposits carried away from their source by water wind or ice?
Silting. Erosion.

How were hoodoos in Bryce canyon formed?
Hoodoos formed as a result of erosion by ice.
What created many of the different land forms visible in California today?
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

How is the weather in ice erosion?
Weather can be a good example of ice erosion. When the weather gets bad and there is hail, the hail then hits the ground or hits other things that are solid, such as rock walls, or rocky features. When this happens, the hail can sometimes hit as such hard forces to cause a crack, split, break, or hole in these features, thus causing ice erosion.
What is land based ice?
Land-based ice is ice that has formed over land. A glacier is an example of land-based ice. Glaciers are common in the northern areas of Canada and the North Pole.
What are four forces that cause erosion?
Running water, waves, wind, glaciers, and gravity Erosion is formed by wind, water, ice, and gravity.
What features are formed by ice erosion?
Ice erosion can create features such as cirques (bowl-shaped hollows on mountainsides), arêtes (sharp ridges between two cirques), and horns (sharp peaks formed by glaciers eroding multiple sides). These features are commonly found in glaciated mountainous areas.
How is ice erosion delayed?
Ice erosion cannot be stopped.
