glaciers
What type of valley does glacier form?
U-shaped valley. Look at pictures of the Yosemite Valley.
What can transfrom a mountain vshaped river valley into a you shaped valleys?
A 'V' shaped valley has been formed by a stream or river. A 'U' shaped valley has been formed by the action of a glacier. Therefore, should a glacier form in the mountains, the ice, pushed downhill by the weight of fresh snow constantly being added high above, will gouge out the 'V' shaped river valley and form the 'U' shaped glacial valley.
How do valley glaciers form?
A U-shaped valley begins as a V-shaped river valley. If the temperature is low enough, a glacier (river of ice) forms inside the valley. As the glacier slowly moves, it scours the valley floor when the temperature rises and the glaciers melts away, a U-shaped valley is left behind.
What can transform v shaped valleys into u shaped valleys?
You can transform a v-shaped valley into a u-shaped valley by a glacier.
What can transform 'V'-shaped river valleys into 'U'-shaped valleys?
You can transform a v-shaped valley into a u-shaped valley by a glacier.
What can transform V-shaped river valleys into U-shaped valleys?
You can transform a v-shaped valley into a u-shaped valley by a glacier.
How do glaciers form u-shaped valleys?
A U-shaped valley begins as a V-shaped river valley. If the temperature is low enough, a glacier (river of ice) forms inside the valley. As the glacier slowly moves, it scours the valley floor when the temperature rises and the glaciers melts away, a U-shaped valley is left behind.
What agent of erosion most likely produced this valley's shape?
When the glacier is moving down the side of the valley it scrapes of the rocks. The grinding changes the shape of the valley so that it is rounded.
A stream Valley Land form is the most common result of what?
A stream valley is usually 'V' shaped, formed by erosion from a stream. A glacial valley is usually 'U' shaped, formed by the action of a glacier.
Which valley are 'U' shaped valley?
A U-Shaped Valley is formed by glacial erosion.
Describe how a cirque form?
Valley glaciers melt and it make a U shaped profile (cirque) ~W
