Document Summary
Think about sea-to-sky highway in vancouver nets when you see a slide, it will probably happen again, so be cautious. Without continents, water would follow wind systems, i. e. opposite of arthds rotation. Deep water: cold i. e. more oxygen rich cold i. e. more oxygen rich i. e. nutrient rich around poles. Water colour is cool because of light wavelength. Ar te: ridge between cirques where ice sheets meet. If thereds an uneven surface like a bump, the glacier will crack it and break it down over time. Old borders due to water trapped in ice on land. Snow o> ice is like sediment o> ice, i. e. both require compression black dots on microscope represents air bubbles that form between crystals as ice formed. Toe: in equilibrium, will never touch that point. Darker snow is a ected by albedo e ect, i. e. reflection of light and melts even faster. Wet glacier: meltwater at bottom makes it flow really fast.
