Answer:
Conditions at the base of a glacier increase glacial flow velocity -
Steeper slope
Smooth rock / glacier contact
Colder basal water temperature.
Explanation:
Steeper slope and smooth rock/glacier contact will increase glacial flow velocity because higher the steepness higher the velocity and smoothness will apply less friction.
Due to decrease in ice thickness the load at the bottom of the glacier will decrease, and we know that the glacier flows under the load of itself, so lesser the load lesser the velocity.
Colder basal water temperature will generate less amount of melt as compared to warmer basal water temperature, so in colder condition, glacial flow velocity will not be increased.
Convergent boundaries form strong earthquakes, as well as volcanic mountains or islands, when the sinking oceanic plate melts. The third type is transform boundaries, or boundaries where plates slide past each other, forming strong earthquakes
If the rains fail it can cause<span> drought in addition to natural factors, the land is marginal. Human activities such as overgrazing, overcultivation and the collection of firewood can lead to desertification, particularly when combined with drought conditions. hope this helps and plz rate below :)</span>
Is this geometry? if so is there a picture i can look at to help you?
