What is the main difference between sediment deposited by water and sediments deposited by glaciers?

Glaciers do not sort sediments as flowing water do. Glaciers can transport almost any size sediment easily, and when ice flow slows down or stops, the sediment is not deposited, due to the density of the ice. As a result, sediments deposited directly by ice when it melts are usually very poorly sorted compared to water.<span>
