What lakes were formed as ice retreated during the last ice age 14 thousand years ago?
As the last ice age ended around 14,000 years ago, glaciers retreated, leading to the formation of several significant lakes. Notable examples include the Great Lakes in North America—Lake Superior, Lake Michigan, Lake Huron, Lake Erie, and Lake Ontario—as well as Lake Agassiz, a massive glacial lake that once covered parts of Canada and the northern United States. These lakes were created by the melting ice, which carved out depressions in the landscape that filled with water.
What are The Four Lakes In Manitoba and the five Great Lakes that are remnant of Glacial Lakes.?
The four major lakes in Manitoba are Lake Winnipeg, Lake Manitoba, Lake Winnipegosis, and Cedar Lake. The five Great Lakes that are remnant of glacial lakes are Lake Superior, Lake Michigan, Lake Huron, Lake Erie, and Lake Ontario. These lakes were formed by the retreat of glaciers during the last Ice Age, shaping the landscape and creating the large basins we see today.
Which are lowlands that were eroded by glaciers and transformed into wide deep basins?
The Great Lakes in North America, including Lake Superior, Lake Michigan, Lake Huron, Lake Erie, and Lake Ontario, were formed by glacial erosion during the last Ice Age. These lowlands were carved out by the movement of glaciers, creating the wide and deep basins that now hold the Great Lakes.
What are the landforms in western new york?
Some of the landforms in Western New York include the Appalachian Plateau, the Finger Lakes, the Niagara Escarpment, and the Great Lakes. The region is characterized by rolling hills, gorges, and valleys carved out by glaciers during the last ice age.

What year did Lake Ontario freeze completely solid for one day?
Never. Lake Ontario has never frozen 'solid'. It may have frozen 'over' as in the entire surface. From Wiki " Lake Ontario will be at most one quarter ice-covered, in a mild winter almost completely unfrozen. Lake Ontario has completely frozen over on only two recorded occasions: during the winter of 1874-75, and in February 1934."

Why does a covering of ice on Lake Erie cause the amount of snow in snowstorms to be reduced?
Weather patterns during winter most consistently come as a front out of Canada, making a large curve as it flows down and over The Great Lakes. Indiana and Ohio also get weather fronts from midwest States moving west in nearly a straight line. The Canadian front, in particular, is responsible for ice and "lake effect snow". When winds cross Lake Erie, it picks up water droplets from the lake. Cities closet to the Lake get the most snow and ice on the ground during snowstorms. The City of Erie in Pennsylvania has gotten 6-foot snow drifts from blowing, driving snow. In addition, ice and snow ON the Lakes affect snow fall on the land, as does lake water temperatures. When ice covers part of the water, there is less exposed water for the wind to pick up water droplets to freeze into snow as it is carried to land. So there is less intense snowstorms with lighter snowfall and less ice storms.
What is so special about Lake Vostok?
Lake Vostok is the largest sub-glacial lake in Antarctica. It is 13,000 feet under the surface of Antarctic ice. It is about the size of Lake Ontario. Scientists believe the lake could have ancient organisms, bacteria, and even fish.
