How does glacier erosion affect the earth?
Glaciers have a high albedo: they reflect more of the Sun's light/heat back into space than bare soil. So their general effect would be cooling: the more glaciers, the larger the cooling effect.
Would you expect to find large glaciers on all these landmasses today?
No, not all landmasses have large glaciers today. Glaciers require specific conditions such as cold temperatures, sufficient precipitation, and high elevations to form and persist. Therefore, you would expect to find large glaciers in regions that meet these criteria, such as polar regions and high mountain ranges.
What weathering material leaves ridges of broken rock and soil?
Glaciers pick up rocks and soil as they move across land. When the glaciers melt, they deposit the rocks and soil. Today there are ridges of rocks and soil where glaciers once were.
How did glaciers change the land of the northeast region?
