fjords are often formed like the coastline of Scandinavia after the last ice age. It can also make the earth on which it resides go flat, much like the Alberta and Saskatchewan in Canada, also the prairies of the USA. It all depends on the composition of the earth underneath the glacier. I hope this info is helpful and or 100% correct, for it has been some years since I last did research on this topic.
What else can I help you with?
Is debris deposited by mountains or by glaciers?
Debris can be deposited by both mountains and glaciers, but the processes differ. Glaciers deposit debris as they advance and retreat, leaving behind features like moraines and outwash plains. In contrast, mountain erosion can also create debris through landslides and rockfalls, which may accumulate at their base as talus slopes. Therefore, while both can contribute to the deposition of debris, glaciers have a distinct and systematic method of doing so.
What landforms do glaciers create?
THey create chichks of glaich and loves of rods
What glaciers create cirques on sides of mountains?
Glaciers that create cirques on the sides of mountains are called cirque glaciers. These glaciers form in bowl-shaped depressions on the slopes of mountains and are responsible for eroding and shaping the characteristic amphitheater-like features known as cirques. Examples of cirque glaciers can be found in mountain ranges around the world, such as the Alps, Andes, and Himalayas.
Which direction do glaciers tend to move?
in all directions
When glaciers drag attached rock across the land they?
create a moraine
How are Glaciers and Landslides alike?
Glaciers and landslides are alike because overtime they will decay and fall over
What type of glaciers can create cirques on the side of mountains?
valley glaciers
What landforms do glaciers create?
THey create chichks of glaich and loves of rods
Do glaciers move slowlyquickly or not at all?
Glaciers tend to move slowly, forced downwards by the weight of snow and ice accumulating at the top of the glacier.
Can volcanic ash create create landslides?
It can, assuming that enough builds up on a steep enough slope.

How great lakes were create?
they made by glaciers melting
Which direction do glaciers tend to move?
in all directions
Why do continental glaciers smooth the landscape and alpine glaciers create ragged landscape?
I only know that alpine glaciers can carve deep u-shaped valleys in the mountains.
What causes boulder fields?
Boulder fields could be caused by volcano ejecta, but are normally the result of deposition by glaciers which once carried them suspended in their ice. Upon melting, the boulders and rock debris are dropped in place.
Did glaciers carve basins that filled with water to create lakes?
yes
What type of glacier can create cirques on the side of mountain?
valley glaciers
