Glacial landscapes would have less erosion due to the colder climate and frozen water.
Semmy [17]2 years ago

Answer:

High mountains are places conducive to ice accumulation due to the ever-low temperatures due to restricted solar radiation. This external agent acts from the accumulation of ice on the top of mountains, which, when it becomes very heavy, causes avalanches, which slide and transport some rocks with the ice. The result of this event is a change in the mountaintop configuration as well as increased sediment in nearby regions, usually valleys. The action of glaciers in the formation of relief is called glacial erosion.

Explain the process of compass points (direction of flow of rivers)​
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

The direction of rivers are usually expressed with respect to the directions we are familiar with: North, South, East or West.

A river has an origin, usually at a higher latitude and ends at the sea or ocean or a large water body. Gravity is the driving force for river flow. Hence, we gauge the ‘direction’ the water is going to flow for any river.

If we were going to get more technical, flow in rivers and streams are measured for their streamflow, which is the amount of water passing through some infinitesmal volume, i.e a point over time. The velocity of the water is determined using acoustic/Doppler based instruments, which will give the local direction of the flow of the river at the measured point along with the velocity.

Hope the answer helps!
