How can glaciers cause deposition?
Oxana [17]
Glaciers deposit their sediment when they melt. They drop and leave behind whatever was once frozen in their ice. It’s usually a mixture of particles and rocks of all sizes, called glacial till. Water from the melting ice may form lakes or other water features. Moraine is sediment deposited by a glacier. A ground moraine is a thick layer of sediments left behind by a retreating glacier. An end moraine is a low ridge of sediments deposited at the end of the glacier. It marks the greatest distance the glacier advanced.
A drumlin is a long, low hill of sediments deposited by a glacier. Drumlins often occur in groups called drumlin fields. The narrow end of each drumlin points in the direction the glacier was moving when it dropped the sediments.
An esker is a winding ridge of sand deposited by a stream of meltwater. Such streams flow underneath a retreating glacier.
A kettle lake occurs where a chunk of ice was left behind in the sediments of a retreating glacier. When the ice melted, it leaves a depression. Hope this helps ;)

Describe the thermocline and what causes it.
Georgia [21]
A thermocline is a transition layer between warmer water at the surface of a body of water and the cooler deep water that lies below. It is caused by the effect of the sun on the water, in that it keeps the upper parts of the body of water warm whilst being unable to reach the lower, deeper parts.
