Presentation transcript:

Glaciers and Melt water – Fluvioglacial environments Objectives: To understand where melt water is in the Glacial system To recognise and explain Glacial hydrographs and regimes To consider the role of melt water in shaping and changing glacial sediments Glacial meltwater streams flowing off the Kaskawulsh glacier.

How could MelT water move within the glacial System? Make a copy of the diagram Where will Moulins occur and why?

Glaciers and meltwater – a little video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tik28A0jZo

Glaciers and melt water an example - Gornergletscher Glacier

What melt water evidence is there on this photo of the Gornergletscher glacier?
