The Glenoid fossa is so called when is not surrounded by the Glenoid labrum (which increases its depth and also increases the surface of contact with the head of the humerus). In a specimen (or in a human body) the glenoid labrum is present, therefore the Glenoid fossa is called Glenoid cavity (deeper). Basically the difference is in the presence of the glenoid labrum... not really the same thing. Anatomy/Pathology Student

The coronoid process articulates with what depression on the distal end of the humerus?

The depression in the scapula can be either one of four different structures; the supraspinatus fossa, the infraspinatus fossa, the subscapular fossa, or the glenoid fossa. The problem is that none of these articulate with the ulna. The bone you are probably looking for is the humerus, and it articulates with the last one I mentioned, the glenoid fossa.
