1. Geological Features: A glacier is commonly white and made of ice. It may appear dirty near its end due to debris that it is carried or pushed by the movement of the glacier. Glaciers can be massive in size stretching across continents (Greenland) or may be small sitting atop of mountains. a. landscape is ice with some formation of dirt and other land mixed in due to movement. b. the size of a glacier may depend on if on land or broken off from land.

A desert is a landscape or region of land that is very dry because of low rainfall amounts (precipitation)‚ often has little coverage by plants‚ and in which streams dry up unless they are supplied by water from outside areas.[1] Deserts can also be described as areas where more water is lost by evapotranspiration than falls as precipitation.[2] Desert plants must have special adaptations to survive with this little water. Deserts take up about one third (33%) of the Earth’s land surface.[3] Bottomlands

considered the world’s driest desert because the extreme cold freezes water vapour out of the air. Annual snowfall on the polar plateau is equivalent to less than 5 cm of rain. A desert is defined as an area of low and irregular rainfall‚ no permanent surface water and no substantial vegetation. Yes‚ because there is very little rainfall or moisture in the air‚ because most of the water stays frozen. Almost the whole continent is Desert‚ the largest contiguous desert on earth‚ and one of the dryest

Hoeung 1 Tiffany Hoeung Ms. Braceras Honors Earth Science 4 March 2015 How Does Slope Affect the Movement of a Glacier Purpose: The purpose of this lab was to find how slope would affect glacier’s movement‚ and whether the movement was at a constant rate or changed. Hypothesis: If the slope is more steep‚ then the glacier’s movements will be faster than a less steep slope. Materials: Flubber Glue Water Borax Long tray Timer Procedure: 1
