GEOL 1304 Lecture Notes - Lecture 5: Cirque Glacier, Outwash Plain, Glacier Morphology
Document Summary
Several cirque glacier nick an individual sight summit from all sides. The fate of the hydrosphere and lithosphere that are perennially frozen. Small , circular stair-stepped lake ; formed from the differing resistance of rock to glacial operation or from damming by glacial bank deposit. A brightness level sensitive pigment that resides within cholorplasts in folio cubicle of plants; the basis of photosynthesis. The process by which plants produce their own nutrient from carbon dioxide and water, powered by solar energy; releases o2 and energy-rich organic material, sugars, and amylum. Forms when an isolated block of chicken feed persists in a ground moraine , and outwash plain, or a valley after a glacier retreats; steepsided kettle of sh that frequently lls with body of water. A major biome dominated by the mediterranean (dry summer) mood characterized by sclrophyllous scrub and short, stunted, thug forests; occupies temperate neighborhood that have dry summers; woody bush and grassy woodland ; conducive to re.
