Glacial Moraine
What is a large boulder that is left behind by a glacier and deposited among rocks called?
A large boulder left behind by a glacier and deposited among other rocks is called a "glacial erratic." These massive stones are often transported over long distances by glacial ice and can differ significantly in composition from the surrounding bedrock. When glaciers melt, these erratics become stranded as the ice retreats, providing important clues about past glacial activity and the geological history of an area.
When a glacier leaves behind a rock that is completely different material composition than the formation it's is deposited upon?
When a glacier deposits a rock with a different material composition than the surrounding formation, it is called "glacial erratic." These boulders are transported over long distances by the moving ice and can originate from vastly different geological regions. Their presence indicates the glacier's path and can provide insights into past glacial movements and the geological history of the area. Glacial erratics serve as important markers in understanding both glacial dynamics and the landscape evolution.
How did Madison boulder get to its present location?
Madison Boulder, located in Madison, New Hampshire, was transported to its present location by glacial activity during the last Ice Age, around 13,000 years ago. As glaciers advanced and retreated, they picked up massive boulders and carried them over long distances. When the glaciers melted, Madison Boulder was left behind, resting on the landscape as a prominent geological feature. Today, it stands as one of the largest glacial erratics in New England.
What is a long deep lake carved by glaciers?
A glacial fiord. Norway has lots of them, but there is also one on the US East Coast. Somes Sound on Mt Desert Island in Maine is a glacial fiord. It is also a very pretty area with lots of very wealthy people having summer properties there. Mt. Desert Island is just barely an island since the inland waterway separating it from the mainland is just a creek.
Where does Gordan Korman come from?
He lives in Long Island, Newyork U.S.A
When will the TV island come out?
right after Astro-Knights, the 10th island it's going to take a long time, as Astro-Knights will come out in late spring
What is the long hill formed by glacial drift?
A drumlin is a long, narrow hill formed by glacial drift. Drumlins are typically elongated in the direction of glacier movement and have a smoothed, rounded shape.
Which new york landscape feature was formed primarily as a result of glacial deposition?
Central Park in Manhattan was formed primarily as a result of glacial deposition during the last ice age. The park's landscape features, such as its hills, valleys, and rock formations, were sculpted by the movement of glaciers and the debris they left behind.
Long steep-sided bays that were once glacial troughs?
fiords
