How do glaciers and ice sheets change the Earth's crust?
Continental ice sheets press down the Earth's crust. They deposit rich soil over the land. Glaciers carve valleys out of rock.
What is the change in the ground elevation of the Earth's surface is called?
The change in the ground elevation of the Earth's surface is called topography. Topography refers to the study of the shape and features of land surfaces, including variations in elevation.
How do earthquakes and glaciers change the surface of the earth?
Earthquakes and glaciers change the surface of the earth by shaping it. Glaciers can cause glacial scarring when they move. Earthquakes can create different types features depending on the seismic wave, speed, lag time, and strength Hope this helps B)
What is continental glacier?
A continental glacier is a glacier that spreads out from a central mass of ice.Hope this helps.Answer 2:A continental glacier is a an ice sheet covering much of a continent
Times when continental glaciers cover large parts of earths surface are called?
Ice ages, also known as glacial periods, occur when continental glaciers cover large parts of the Earth's surface, leading to colder temperatures and extensive ice accumulation. These periods can last for thousands to millions of years and have occurred multiple times throughout Earth's history.

Did continental or valley glaciers cover the earth during ice ages?
Yes it did :-)
When did continental glaciers cover large parts of the earth?
during the ice age

How do glaciers change Earth?
~ BY MELTING, THAT CAUSES FLOODS~
Do earthquakes and glaciers change the earth surface?
yes they do and so do glaciers, hurricanes, tornadoes and many other things

In what ways do glaciers change earth's surface?
They smooth earths surface
What percentage of Earth's water is found in glaciers?
About 1.7 percent (and falling, as many glaciers are melting due to climate change).
What are the natural events that change the earth?
Wind, rivers (water), glaciers, volcanoes, and earthquakes. They change by taking Earth bits away.
How do glaciers form and change the earth's surface?
by gravity, ice, wind, water
Why do continental glaciers cover antarctica and most of Greenland?
Continental glaciers cover Antarctica and most of Greenland because these are the coldest places on Earth, with temperatures that allow snow to accumulate and not melt. Over time, the accumulation of snow compacts into ice, forming massive ice sheets that spread across the land.
