Equilibrium-Line Altitudes of Late Quaternary Glaciers in the Zardkuh Mountain, Iran
Equilibrium-line altitudes (ELAs) of former glaciers in the Zardkuh Mountain of the Zagros Mountain Range were reconstructed from glacial-geologic data on former ice limits by using various methods. In the study area various types of glacial landforms such as outwash fans, moraines and well developed glacial cirques are observed. The results suggest that ELA were depressed 1433 m below to prese...
متن کاملReconstruction Glacier Circus in volcanic craters (Case study Kurdistan Qorveh)
Extended abstract Introduction The attention of forefront foreign researchers has focused on glacier circus. Glacial cirque is the most important pattern of glacial erosion. Deep depressions with steep walls, flat floor or low slope, half-bowl shaped (crescent shaped) are created at high altitudes in the mountains margin by the erosion of mountain glacier (Ahmadi, Feiznia, 2012). Th...
متن کاملInvestigation of the effects and evidence of late Quaternary glaciers on the Binaloud Heights
The purpose of this study was to identify evidence of late Quaternary glaciers in the northern highlands of Binalood. Topographic maps, satellite imagery and climatic data are the tools and data used in this study. Arc gis 10.4 software was used for data analysis. Quaternary glacier evidences were identified based on four types of evidences including morphic indices, climatic evidences, geomorp...
متن کاملCold-based Glaciers in the Western Dry Valleys of Antarctica: Terrestrial Landforms and Martian Analogs:
Introduction: Basal-ice and surface-ice temperatures are key parameters governing the style of glacial erosion and deposition. Temperate glaciers contain basal ice at the pressure-melting point (wet-based) and commonly exhibit extensive areas of surface melting. Such conditions foster basal plucking and abrasion, as well as deposition of thick matrix-supported drift sheets, moraines, and glacio...
متن کاملErosion by an Alpine glacier.
Assessing the impact of glaciation on Earth's surface requires understanding glacial erosion processes. Developing erosion theories is challenging because of the complex nature of the erosion processes and the difficulty of examining the ice/bedrock interface of contemporary glaciers. We demonstrate that the glacial erosion rate is proportional to the ice-sliding velocity squared, by quantifyin...
