Question 1 0.5 / 0.5 pts sublimation of the front of the glacial ice Correct! calving melting of the front of the glacial ice earthquakes Icebergs are made by the process of calving. The internet has many videos like this one (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MiD9pWk1eyk) showing calving. Question 2 0.5 / 0.5 pts You are taken via Google Street Views to different locations where you are nearby a glacier. The ability of Google Street View to have you spin around, look and interpret is puts you in the drivers seat for multiple choice and matching questions. You will need a background provided by the glacial lectures in the GPH 111 class and readings about glaciers. Select the best match or multiple choice answer. In Parque Nacional Los Glaciares in Argentina, you can walk around in Google Street Views (https://www.google.com/maps/@-49.5187201,-72.9967071,3a,75y,276.91h,78.32t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sKewHKtp04WI1iPyh2itKWw!2e0!7i13312!8i6656!6m1!1e and see the front of the glacier as it enters the water. Spin around. Look around, Then, answer the question: how are all those icebergs made? For this question, you will be on a Google Street View tour of the Matterhorn Glacier. This is an aerial view of the Matternhorn glacier (https://www.google.com/maps/@45.9662279,7.7004405,6388m/data=!3m1!1e3) area. This 360 view provides you a wintertime skiers perspective (https://www.google.com/maps/@45.9384537,7.7299223,3a,75y,150.72h,73.95t/data=!3m8!1e1!3m6!1s- E0lsp5eIpNI%2FVms59OozOBI%2FAAAAAAAALYg%2FH6s1qJpaWzwx0SidHKNw0Mkf47tntNAxg!2e4!3e11!6s%2F%2Flh4.googleusercontent.com%2F- E0lsp5eIpNI%2FVms59OozOBI%2FAAAAAAAALYg%2FH6s1qJpaWzwx0SidHKNw0Mkf47tntNAxg%2Fw203-h101-n-k-no%2F!7i8704!8i4352) . For this question, you will examine this panoramic view of the glacier (https://www.google.com/maps/@45.963769,7.7253712,3a,30y,294.17h,71.84t/data=!3m8!1e1!3m6!1s- 2BUHLrV8ueM%2FVctYCcjgsaI%2FAAAAAAAAAFY%2F6ksF1swxyS4I7uUFMtpGn3Zo9ooFPM6Cg!2e4!3e11!6s%2F%2Flh4.googleusercontent.com%2F- 2BUHLrV8ueM%2FVctYCcjgsaI%2FAAAAAAAAAFY%2F6ksF1swxyS4I7uUFMtpGn3Zo9ooFPM6Cg%2Fw203-h101-n-k-no%2F!7i10240!8i5120) during summer. This summer view allows you to see the glacier cravasses. In the readings and lecture, you learned about glacial crevasses that can be made from different sorts of stresses. First, focus on the glacial crevasses in the middle of the glacier. Then, look up close at the smaller crevasses that are found on the side of the glacier. Do you see how they have different orientations? Please select the best answer that fills in these blanks. The glacial crevasses in the middle of the glacier in this view (https://www.google.com/maps/@45.963769,7.7253712,3a,30y,294.17h,71.84t/data=!3m8!1e1!3m6!1s- 2BUHLrV8ueM%2FVctYCcjgsaI%2FAAAAAAAAAFY%2F6ksF1swxyS4I7uUFMtpGn3Zo9ooFPM6Cg!2e4!3e11!6s%2F%2Flh4.googleusercontent.com%2F-

Those in the middle form from extension as the glacier is moving faster in places -- forcing the ice to pull apart. Question 3 0.5 / 0.5 pts The rock is dissolving away by carbonation. The glacier has a lake underneath it, and the rock is slowly filling up that lake. The rock slowly moves its way down through to the bottom of the ice, resting underneath the ice sheet. Correct! Rock broken off the mountain faces by frost weathering is now buried inside snow and glacier ice. When the ice moves, the rock is carried away. A lot of rock produced by frost weathering is carried to a glacier surface by avalanches. The rock then is incorporated into the ice. As the ice moves downhill, the rock material moves with it. When the ice eventually melts in the zone of ablation, moraines are deposited -- to be composed of the glacial till (a mixture of this rock material). Question 4 0.5 / 0.5 pts Correct! recessional moraine bergshrund tarn stoss and lee Recessional moraine is the best answer. A moraine is a ridge of till, composed of the mixture of rocks that were deposited at the front of a glacier while it was melting. The glacier was once much, much bigger. It then lost mass and the snout melted back. However, it stopped at the position of those two people in this view (https://www.google.com/maps/@45.9718037,7.7070088,3a,37.5y,253.29h,90.26t/data=!3m8!1e1!3m6!1s- 2BUHLrV8ueM%2FVctYCcjgsaI%2FAAAAAAAAAFY%2F6ksF1swxyS4I7uUFMtpGn3Zo9ooFPM6Cg%2Fw203-h101-n-k-no%2F!7i10240!8i5120) form from ____________, while those right next to the side result from ___________. Argentina has some of the most accessible glacial terrain. However, you will not find this Google Street View (https://www.google.com/maps/place/Argentina/@-49.2815767,-73.1182334,3a,75y,129.94h,58.2t/data=!3m8!1e1!3m6!1s-V- Wfgsg7rJM%2FVtpCG4QPnmI%2FAAAAAAAAGGk%2FheAEW-jRKRoKQwk6JHqxA1Xex-XtZea6Q!2e4!3e11!6s%2F%2Flh4.googleusercontent.com%2F-V- Wfgsg7rJM%2FVtpCG4QPnmI%2FAAAAAAAAGGk%2FheAEW-jRKRoKQwk6JHqxA1Xex-XtZea6Q%2Fw203-h101-n-k- no%2F!7i8704!8i4352!4m5!3m4!1s0x95bccaf5f5fdc667:0x3d2f77992af00fa8!8m2!3d-38.416097!4d-63.616672!6m1!1e1) easy to reach. Before you are told the question, first spin around and look at this amazing place. You are seeing beautiful bare rock that is being fractured by the process of frost weathering. Lots of rock is being broken off these cliff faces, but you see no talus just sitting around. In fact, all you see is just bare rock and ice. Your question: where did all of the rock fragments that are frost weathered go? For this question, you will be on a Google Street View tour of the Matterhorn Glacier . This is an aerial view of the Matternhorn glacier (https://www.google.com/maps/@45.9662279,7.7004405,6388m/data=!3m1!1e3) area.

For this question, you will examine this panoramic view (https://www.google.com/maps/@45.9718037,7.7070088,3a,75y,331.66h,82.07t/data=!3m8!1e1!3m6!1s- 26HnaioBTyk%2FVyoturok_4I%2FAAAAAAAAKwA%2FvSjqJaMZ6CgFmSVEkH3IYfgSh83a0zYDwCLIB!2e4!3e11!6s%2F%2Flh4.googleusercontent.com%2F- 26HnaioBTyk%2FVyoturok_4I%2FAAAAAAAAKwA%2FvSjqJaMZ6CgFmSVEkH3IYfgSh83a0zYDwCLIB%2Fw203-h101-n-k-no%2F!7i10240!8i5120) . The glacier is on your right. There is a lake in front of the glacier, and there is a small ridge composed of a mixture of boulder, cobbles, sand and mud on your left. This is a close-up of that ridge (https://www.google.com/maps/@45.9718037,7.7070088,3a,37.5y,253.29h,90.26t/data=!3m8!1e1!3m6!1s- 26HnaioBTyk%2FVyoturok_4I%2FAAAAAAAAKwA%2FvSjqJaMZ6CgFmSVEkH3IYfgSh83a0zYDwCLIB!2e4!3e11!6s%2F%2Flh4.googleusercontent.com%2F- 26HnaioBTyk%2FVyoturok_4I%2FAAAAAAAAKwA%2FvSjqJaMZ6CgFmSVEkH3IYfgSh83a0zYDwCLIB%2Fw203-h101-n-k-no%2F!7i10240!8i5120) with a few people in the view for scale. Those people are standing on what type of glacial landform?
