The two main sources of ice in the British Isles are glacial ice and sea ice. Glacial ice primarily comes from the remnants of glaciers and ice sheets that existed during the last Ice Age, which shaped the landscape and left behind deposits in areas like Scotland and Wales. Sea ice can form in coastal regions during particularly cold winter months, although it is less common and less persistent than glacial ice. Together, these sources contribute to the region's unique geological and climatic features.

How was Europe separated?

All landmasses on Earth are constantly shifting and rearranging. The British Isles most likely just broke off as all landmasses do at one point or another. However, during the Ice Age (for example), the British Isles and Europe were connected due to the low sea levels. But once the ice melted, sea levels rose and the land bridge disappeared.


What direction did the corries in the British Isles face?

In the British Isles, corries, which are glacially formed hollow depressions, typically face northeast. This orientation is primarily due to the prevailing winds and the direction of glacial movement during the last Ice Age, which shaped the landscape. As a result, many corries are found on the northern and eastern sides of mountains, where they receive less sunlight and can retain snow and ice longer.
