Plucking A process of glacial erosion that adds gravel, sand
and boulders to a glacier's bottom and sides as it moves
Slide 2
Esker A long, narrow ridge of coarse gravel deposited by a
stream within a melting glacier
Slide 3
OUTWASssH! the material,deposited by melted water streams in
front of a glacier. (Outwash impacts the life of people. I dont
know how it does.) Becky Herrera
Slide 4
If someone were to walk on a slope with mass movement, theyd
have a hard time getting up because of the steep slope.
Slide 5
Loess (Les) Loess is windblown deposits of tightly packed,
fine-grained sediments. It impacts our lives by at certain climates
being the most fertile land on Earth Kyle Cann
Slide 6
A mixture of different sized sediments that is dropped from the
base of a retreating glacier and can cover huge areas of land.
Slide 7
Abrasion By: Myles Council Abrasion- windblown erosion when
sediment strikes rocks and the surface of the rock gets scraped and
worn away.
Slide 8
a crescent -shaped dune
Slide 9
Bowl-shaped basins created by valley glaciers.
Slide 10
Slide 11
Rock Falls A mass of falling rocks. Falling of loose rocks as
from a cliff. Impacts the life of people because you dont know when
its going to fall and if it does it damages roads and can fall on
people too.
Slide 12
Slump When a mass of land slips down along a curved surface,
the mass movement is called slump.
Slide 13
SEDIMENT SEDIMENT DEFFINITION Mineral or Organic Matter
Deposited by Water, Air, or Ice. IMPACTS LIFE It Impacts the Life
of People Because it Might be in Our Drinks and Also it is All
Around US.
Slide 14
A large mass of ice and snow moving on land under its own
weight. Today, glaciers often are tourist attractions in
mountainous areas. But glaciers are also a natural resource, and
people all over the world are trying to harness the power of these
frozen streams
Slide 15
A large ridge of rocks and soil deposited by a glacier when it
stops moving forward
Slide 16
D E F L A T I O N DEFINITION A TYPE OF EROSION THAT OCCURS WHEN
WIND BLOWS OVER LOOSE SEDIMENT. DEFLATION REMOVES SMALL PARTICLES
AND LEAVES COARSER SEDIMENT BEHIND. By : Brittany Henderson
Slide 17
Erosion Definition Erosion is a process that wears away surface
materials and moves them from one place to another. It can effect
the way you live if the erosion is under your household. Erosion
can also effect businesses if it is near them if there farming
Slide 18
a sharp narrow ridge found in rugged mountains It effects
peoples life by making it hard to climb a mountain Quinton
Baker
Slide 19
A type of mass movement in which sediments move down-slope very
slowly. Its common in areas of freezing and thawing, and can cause
walls, trees, and fences to lean downhill. This can affect peoples
lives if it changes the position of their fence or moves a road to
a new position.
Slide 20
The dropping of sediments that occurs when an agent of erosion,
such as gravity, a glacier, wind, or water, loses its energy and
can no longer carry its load. This can affect someones life
(especially if they live near water) by changing the shape of a
shoreline or riverbed.
