A round body of water formed by a glacier is known as a glacial lake. These lakes are created when glacial ice melts and fills depressions in the landscape. They can vary in size and depth and often have clear, cold water due to the sediment and minerals carried by the glacier. Glacial lakes are commonly found in mountainous regions and can be important for local ecosystems and water supplies.
A tidewater glacier is a glacier that flows down into the ocean or a body of water. These glaciers calve, or release icebergs, into the water, causing a dynamic interaction between the glacier and the ocean.
A feature that is not the result of a glacier carving out rock is a delta. Deltas are formed by the deposition of sediment carried by a river as it flows into a larger body of water, such as an ocean or lake, rather than through the erosive action of a glacier. In contrast, features like U-shaped valleys and glacial striations are directly caused by glacial movement and erosion.
The end or outer margin of a glacier is called the glacier terminus. This is where the glacier ends and begins to melt or calve into the surrounding environment, such as a body of water or land. Changes in the glacier terminus are closely monitored by scientists to understand the health and movement of the glacier.
It depends on whether the body of water it formed over is warm. If it was a warm body of water, then it will bring warmer weather. If it was a cold body of water then it will bring colder weather.
A lagoon is a body of water formed from the ocean leading to a beach in the round (meaning in a circle or half-circle shape). A lake is a body of water completely surrounded by land which may be fed into by a river or some such, and may feed into a river or some such.
A glacier is a land form as it is a large mass of ice that moves slowly over land. It is not considered a body of water, but rather a type of land feature formed from accumulated snow and ice.
well, a body of water is formed by glacier movement because while the glacier is moving parts of it is falling in the ocean. The glaciers are much colder then the water when the glacier falls water is formed in the water because of the melting ice.
Glacier movement has formed various bodies of water, including fjords, lakes, and rivers. When glaciers advance and retreat, they carve out deep valleys that can fill with water to create these different water bodies.
A glacier is a water reservoir and is not considered a water body.
yes
The Cirque is the name given to the bowl shaped depression were the valley glaciers usually begins. A glacier basically refers to a terminus that usually ends in a body of water.

This body of water is formed by oceans.

A terminal moraine and a delta are both landforms created by deposition of sediment. However, a terminal moraine is formed by glacial ice depositing till at the end of a glacier, whereas a delta is formed by a river depositing sediment at its mouth where it meets a body of water.
the one located in BC flows into the inland body of water which is the Garibaldi Lake.
