Question

Write a few sentences explaining glacial-fluvial landforms.

Answer

Glacial-fluvial landforms are formed by the interaction of glaciers and rivers. Glaciers erode the landscape, creating landforms such as moraines, cirques, and U-shaped valleys, and depositing sediment in areas known as outwash plains. Rivers then transport and deposit this sediment, creating landforms such as deltas, alluvial fans, and terraces. Glacial-fluvial landforms are often found in areas that have experienced glaciation in the past and are characterized by a complex interplay of erosion and deposition by glacial and fluvial processes.
