You can experience the unique combination of the traditions of Mongolia
throat singing and bagpipe & drums from Latvia. Its all set in a landform
environment that is absolutely classic. Bare rock scenes are classic of one
type of landform, and the scenes when the horses are running are classic for
another type of landform. The information is provided in the weathering
landforms lecture and the mass wasting lecture.
QUESTION: What are the processes producing the bare-rock landforms and
the grass-covered landforms?
Bare rock:frost weathering ... grass-covered: debris flows
You Answered
Bare-rock: frost weathering ... grass-covered: rotational slump
Bare-rock: columnar jointing ... grass-covered: solifluction
Correct Answer
Bare-rock: spheroidal weathering ... grass-covered: soil creep
The only choice that makes any sense is spheroidal weathering that rounds
granitic into the spheroidal forms you see. The convex slope form you see
behind the running horses is produced by soil creep.
