Aim: What are Glaciers? I. Glacier – found at high altitudes and high latitudes. These are locations where more snow falls during the winter than melts.

Glaciers and Erosion Glacier = Large moving mass of ice and snowmovingice Alpine vs. Continental Glaciers.
What is erosion? -Erosion is the removal of rock particles and soil from an area -Erosion requires energy (usually supplied by gravity)
Ch 15: p  Enormous masses of moving ice created by the accumulation and compaction of snow.  Powerful agents of erosion ~ have carved some.
Glaciers We wouldn’t be here without them.. A Glacier is an accumulation of snow that is large enough to survive the summer melt. These large ice masses.
Glacial Erosion and Deposition. Erosion Glaciers have the capacity to carry huge rocks and piles of debris over large distances They grind out parallel.
Geologic Features of Glaciation
Glacial Landscapes Glacier = large moving mass of ice. Glacier = large moving mass of ice. Glaciers erode, transport and deposit massive amount of sediment.

Deposits from rivers of glacial meltwater within/under the glacier. Esker Deposits from rivers of glacial meltwater within/under the glacier.

Large boulders deposited randomly across a landscape. Erratic Large boulders deposited randomly across a landscape.

The distance wind travels across water to form a wave. Fetch The distance wind travels across water to form a wave.

Glacial Erosion Sediment transported by moving glaciers. Carved the landscape of the Hudson Valley; Striations, U-Shaped valleys

A long period of glaciation. Ice Ages A long period of glaciation.

Hole/depression formed when a glacier remains in one spot and melts. Kettle Hole/depression formed when a glacier remains in one spot and melts.

Outwash Deposition of sediments formed from the meltwaters of a glacier. Sediment is sorted by size, shape and density.

Scratches on the bedrock from passing glaciers. Striation Scratches on the bedrock from passing glaciers.
