If your lucky. Yes you can see them but it would be pretty hard to see. because of all the gasses and because of how far away you are and its hard anyways to see curtain things with the naked eye. xoxo, Jenna
Yes. One very good example would be the striations caused by glacial abrasion. Please see the related link for more information.
cause its hard to see the different pics. in the picture
Any time the brake pedal is hard to press then you need to check and see if the brake booster is functioning properly.
is the process of weathering and transport of solids (sediment, soil, rock and other particles) in the natural environment or their source and deposits them elsewhere. It usually occurs due to transport by wind, water, or ice; by down-slope creep of soil and other material under the force of gravity; or by living organisms, such as burrowing animals, in the case of bioerosion. Erosion is a natural process, but it has been increased dramatically by human land use, especially industrial agriculture, deforestation, and urban sprawl.[1][2] Land that is used for industrial agriculture generally experiences a significantly greater rate of erosion than that of land under natural vegetation, or land used for sustainable agricultural practices. This is particularly true if tillage is used, which reduces vegetation cover on the surface of the soil and disturbs both soil structure and plant roots that would otherwise hold the soil in place. However, improved land use practices can limit erosion, using techniques such as terrace-building, conservation tillage practices, and tree planting. A certain amount of erosion is natural and, in fact, healthy for the ecosystem. For example, gravels continuously move downstream in watercourses. Excessive erosion, however, causes serious problems, such as receiving water sedimentation, ecosystem damage and outright loss of soil. Erosion is distinguished from weathering, which is the process of chemical or physical breakdown of the minerals in the rocks, although the two processes may occur concurrently.
Because glaciers move very, very slowly.
Because the glacier moves to slow to be noticed without instruments
I believe so: during regular glacial intervals, most of North America was totally covered in ice, known as the Laurentine ice sheet. This would have caused massive glacial erosion. This causes rivers and other factors to pale in comparison, as these were not even existent for some periods of the history, however this issue is debatable, as you can see that the Grand Canyon is no small change to the landscape, as well as other causes of erosion, which play a major part too, but I think that glaciers have played the greatest part.
Yes, glacial troughs are U-shaped valleys that form through the erosion of moving glaciers. They have steep, straight sides and a flat bottom that was carved out by the glacier over time. The presence of a glacial trough indicates past glaciation in an area.

because erosion is the carrying away of rocks and stuff, and weathering is the wearing away or breaking down of rocks and other stuff. so you can see the rocks that got carried away from their original spot but its kind of hard to see the breaking down of rocks. hope that helps!
By looking into the records of a certain area, you can see erosion patterns that'll help you predict erosion.
Reducing the surface of the beach is a consequence of erosion.
No: glacial activity occurs in all glacial phases of all Ice Ages, and we now see the results of the latest within the present Ice Age.
erosion is the breaking down of minerals. It causes things to shift and break. This is why you sometimes see water stains on rocks. If it is let alone for a good period of time. It will erode the rock away. But it goes really slow so its really hard to notice it happen
Erosion by rivers is faster because the processes carried out by rivers are far faster; for example, a river meander may move to the other side of the valley in a decade, yet a glacial trough may not widen by a single centimeter in the same time. However, you should also note that the landscapes caused by glaciers can form in a shorter period of time, and be far more impressive, but this is not the rule.You will also notice that the features caused by glacial erosion are a lot cruder than those from rivers: compare the Grand Canyon and any glacial trough, the one I know best is Nant Ffrancon in Snowdonia, though I'm sure there's another near you. You can see that the Grand Canyon is far rougher, but also more intricate: there are stacks, as well as other features (as I am not particularly familiar with the Canyon). Nant Ffrancon, on the other hand it just a simple trough - a U-shaped valley. It is very different.You may also note that glacial erosion is greatly affected by weathering. It was pointed out to me that one side of Nant Ffrancon was steeper than the other. This is as a result of the sun causing more melting of the ice on one side than the other. A river acts quickly and so is not nearly as affected by such factors, if at all affected.Here are just a few comparisons between the two.
Fjords are typically found in coastal regions with mountainous terrain, such as in Norway, Iceland, Greenland, Alaska, and New Zealand. They are formed by glacial erosion, creating deep, narrow inlets with steep cliffs on either side.
