5 Written Questions

1. Mountain lake
2. arete caused by glaciers
3. coalescence of two or more Alpine glaciers; usually occupying lowlands
4. Snow gain = snow loss
5. raised glacial valley that intersects the main glacial valley

5 Matching Questions

1. Explain the factors that determine "behavior" (advance & Retreat) of glaciers: cravasses
2. Lenses
3. Ice Sheets
4. Explain how glaciers move, and what happens to them as they do.
5. What is a loess, why do we have so much loess in Alaska?

1. a Erosion; Plastic Flow (creeping movement), Slipping (sliding occurs along contacts mostly bottom), Facture (brittle failure, creating factured zones)
2. b Loess is glacial silt. There are/were so many glaciers here
3. c continental glaciers; large scale
4. d massive- big chunks of ice above ground
5. e fractures in body of ice; indicate velocity change

5 True/False Question

1. Explain erosion, transport, and resulting landforms in glaciated regions; Fjord → arete caused by glaciers
   

   True        False

2. Explain the factors that determine "behavior" (advance & Retreat) of glaciers: ablation → wastage: are where there is a net loss; loss> gain
   

   True        False

3. Explain erosion, transport, and resulting landforms in glaciated regions; Roche Mountonee → rock mountain; ruminant of glacial movement
   

   True        False

4. What are the main types of glaciers? → Gravity; then momentum once it gets moving.
   

   True        False

5. Glacial erosion: explain proccesses and describe resulting landforms; Abrasion → Abrasion- scraping and grinding (rock flower and striations)
   

   True        False
