Glacial Landforms (PHYSICAL)

a narrow, steep-sided ridge formed when two glaciers flow in parallel valleys

steep-sided, armchair shaped hollows formed by hollows being eroded by rotational slip

a small, circular lake formed by meltwater in a corrie

long, thin lakes that form after a glacier retreats. they form in hollows where softer rock was eroded more than the surrounding hard rock

u-shaped valleys that have been eroded to become deeper and wider

a small valley formed by a tributary glacier left at a higher level as a larger glacier eroded the valley much deeper

Cliff-like edges on the valley side, formed when ridges of land that stick out into the main valley are cut off as the glacier moves past

a pointed mountain peak with at least three sides formed when three or more glaciers erode a mountain

landforms formed by till deposited by a glacier

moraine that forms along the side of a glacier

moraine that forms where two glaciers come together

moraine that forms at the snout of a glacier

unsorted material left beneath a glacier when the ice melts

Elongated hills of glacial deposits

1.5km long, 50m high, 500m wide

large boulders that have been transported into an area by a glacier
