Glaciers can form lakes through a process called glacial erosion and deposition. As glaciers advance, they erode the landscape, carving out depressions known as basins. When the glacier retreats, these basins can fill with meltwater, creating lakes. Additionally, glacial debris, or moraines, can block the flow of rivers, further contributing to lake formation.
