Dune deflation hollows are where wind has removed sand down to a level where a layer of particles too heavy for the wind to move (an armoured surface) stabilises the sand and prevents the surface being lowered further.
A crevasse is a deep, wedge-shaped opening in a moving mass of ice called a glacier. Crevasses usually form in the top 50 meters (160 feet) of a glacier, where the ice is brittle.
a mass of rocks and sediment carried down and deposited by a glacier, typically as ridges at its edges or extremity.
The quartz is more resistant to abrasion and chemically more resistant than the feldspar. The result is that the quartz remains in the stream but the feldspar breaks down to clay or is dissolved.
