Problem 15
Explain how a glacier can erode the land, and then describe three forms of glacial deposition.
Problem 16
What is the material called that is deposited by meltwater beyond the end of a glacier? A) esker B) cirque C) outwash D) moraine
Problem 18
Notice that these data were obtained in July. Explain why the amount of stream flow from a glacier would vary each day. Give three examples to support your reasoning.
Problem 19
What can be done to prevent the migration of beach dunes.
Problem 20
A researcher finds evidence of movement of ice within a glacier. Explain how this movement could occur.
Problem 21
The end of a valley glacier is at a lower elevation than its point of origin is. How does this help explain melting at its end while snow and ice still are accumulating where it originated?
Problem 21
