Miscellaneous
100
These are processes that build Earth's landforms

What are constructive Processes

100

These are what carve v-shaped valleys into the Earth's land

What are Rivers

100

This force is the dominant cause of mass wasting

What is gravity

100

These are glaciers that cover over 50000km2 

What are ice sheets/continental glaciers
100

Features on Earth's surface that are formed by natural processes

What are landforms

200

Landforms created by this destructive process are typically tall and jagged 

What is erosion

200

Water moves from _______ elevation to _______ elevation

What is high to low

200

If gravity is ___________ then the forces that are holding soil and rocks in place mass wasting will not happen

what is weaker

200

This is a mound or ridge of unsorted sediment deposited by a glacier

What is a moraine

200
These are the agents of weathering 

What are water wind and ice 

300
Layers of sediment that appear as stripes are often called this 

What are beds

300

Slow moving water deposits sediment in this part of a river.  

(be as specific as possible)

What is the inside of a meander

300

These are defined the rapid downhill movement of soil, loose rocks, and boulders

What are landslides

300

This is a sharp ridge of rock formed between two glaciers

What is an arete

300

This is the water present beneath Earth's surface in rock and soil pore spaces and in the fractures of rock formations. 

What is groundwater

400

Swamps, beaches, and deltas are examples of this type of geological feature on Earth

What are Depositional Environments

400

This is a large deposit of sediment that forms where a river meets a large body of water

What is a delta

400

This is the purposeful removal of trees and vegetation from an area

What is deforestation

400

This forms when smaller glaciers at higher elevation approaches a large valley carved by a much larger glacier.

What is a hanging valley
400
These deposited much of the sand found on the ocean floor

What are rivers

500

This process is when rocks bump into each other as they are transported and become smoother 

What is Rounding

500

Coastal action of waves can create these landforms

(be specific)

What are sea caves, sea arches, sea pillars/stacks

500

This is a pile of angular rocks and sediment created from a rockfall

What is a Talus

500

This is a long, narrow sea inlet with steep sides or cliffs, created by a glacier

Fjord

500

This is a mixture of various sizes of sediment deposited by a glacier

What is a Till
