What to Focus On

  • A glacier is moving snow and ice.
  • Snow fields lie above the snowline.
  • Snowline height changes with latitude, altitude, and moisture.

  • Agassiz proved glacier movement in 1834.
  • Movement is fastest in the middle and slower at the sides.
  • Steeper slopes and thicker ice increase glacier velocity.

  • Pure ice is least erosive; rock debris does the work.
  • Plucking, abrasion, and attrition are the main erosional processes.
  • Crevasses form because glacier movement is unequal.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

A glacier is a fixed mass of ice that does not move.

The sides of a glacier move faster than the middle because they are closer to the valley walls.

Snowline and snow fields are the same thing.
