Question

explain the erosional work of glacier

Answer 1

There are two main processes of glacial erosion. The first that we will talk about is plucking, which is defined as the erosionand transport of large chunks of rocks. As a glacier moves over the landscape, water melts below the glacier and seeps into cracks within the underlying bedrock.

Answer 2

Answer:

Glacial Erosion

There are three main types of glacial erosion - plucking, abrasion and freeze thaw.

[Glacial Erosion]

Plucking is when melt water from a glacier freezes around lumps of cracked and broken rock. When the ice moves downhill, rock is plucked from the back wall. Abrasion is when rock frozen to the base and the back of the glacier scrapes the bed rock. Freeze-thaw is when melt water or rain gets into cracks in the bed rock, usually the back wall. At night the water freezes, expands and causes the crack to get larger. Eventually the rock will break away.
