When a glacier melts, it deposits the sediment it eroded from the land, creating various landforms.
What else can I help you with?
What are two processes by which glacier erode the land?
Plucking and Abrasion.
How can a iceberg create weathering?
As an iceberg - or glacier - moves across land, it will scrape against it, causing it to weather/erode the land.
What are 2 ways glaciers erode the land?
The two processes are abrasion and plucking.What processes lead to glacial erosion? Describe them.The two main processes that lead to glacial erosion are plucking and abrasion. Plucking is the process by which a glacier picks off rocks as it blocks over the land. The rock fragments freeze to the bottom of the glacier, gouging and scratching the bedrock as the glacier advances in the process of abrasion.
What are 2 process by which glaciers erode the land?
abrasion and plucking.
What are two process by which glaciers erode land?
Plucking and Abrasion.
What is a large mass of snow and ice that moves slowly over land?
Any large mass of ice that moves slowly over ice is called a glacier.
How is a glacire formed?
glacier are river of ice which to erode the land scape by bulldozing soil and stones to expose the solid rock below.
Why is freeze thaw weathering absoloutely vital if a glacier is going to be able to erode its valley?
Its to do with how it is able to form the glacier. There is a cylce where the ice can only cycle round and round if freeze thaw weathering is taking place, meaning that a glacier can erode its valley. The process of freeze thaw weathering erodes the valley.
What is the difference between glacier erosion and glacier deposition?
Glacier erosion is when the ground below the glacier is removed. Glacial deposition is when the debris (eroded ground) is left behind when a glacier melts and the face retreats.
How can glaciers erode rocks?
The glacier can carry rocks. The moving of the glacier.
The two process by which waves erode the land are?
Well, i only know one of them which is impact
How does glaciers erode by abrasion?
Glaciers erode by abrasion when they drag rocks and sediments along their base and sides, creating a sandpaper effect. This process occurs as the glacier moves, grinding, scratching, and smoothing the underlying bedrock and carving out deep valleys. The debris carried by the glacier further enhances the abrasion process as it scrapes against the surface.
