Kames are irregularly shaped hills or mounds formed by glacial deposits, primarily composed of sand and gravel. They typically occur as a result of the melting of glaciers, where sediments accumulate in various configurations. Kames can vary in size and are often found in areas previously covered by ice sheets, providing important insights into past glacial activity and landscape evolution. Their unique formations contribute to the topography and ecology of glaciated regions.

Small hills that are formed form deposits left by streams on the surface of glacier are called?
Kames. Many are found in areas of kettles and moraines.
Eskers and kames are deposited by meltwater streams and they are composed of stratified sand and gravel?
Eskers are long, winding ridges of gravel and sand left behind by melting glaciers, while kames are irregularly shaped mounds of sediment deposited by glacial meltwater. Both formations are composed of stratified layers of sand and gravel that were sorted and deposited by flowing water during the glacier's retreat.
Small hills that are formed from deposits left by streams on the surface of a glacier are called what?
Kames. Many are found in areas of kettles and moraines.
What are ridges of sand and small bits of gravel formed the out wash of melting glacier are called?
All types of glacier sedimentary deposits are called drift. Winding ridges of sand and small bits of gravel formed by the out wash of melting ice from glaciers are called eskers kames, or moraines. Moraines are also found on the surface of glaciers. Kames form on flat or inclined ice, in holes, or in cracks. They may also be called scree and talus which also come from eroding mountains.
