Glacial Processes and Landforms
A glacier is a moving river of ice on land. In this video Geography teacher Darron Gedge discusses how glaciers are formed and how the processes of glacial erosion, transportation and deposition create various types of land forms. The main glacial erosion processes are plucking, abrasion, and freeze-thaw. Landforms made by glaciers include moraines, drumlins, pyramid peaks, cirques, ribbon lakes, tarns, hanging valleys, aretes, fiords and U shaped valleys. This video was manly filmed in the South Island of New Zealand.

If only you uploaded this a day earlier I could've used it in my L2 Geo exam! Nice video love u Darron
Very good video! I'm a guide at Fox Glacier, NZ, and this video helped me unterstand better my surroundings.
amazing
Darron u have such beautiful content ..will be waiting to see ur coming videos embracing feautes world wide on geography and not just one country.🙂
Very good
I like most of every thing you said and showed us except the snow on the tree there was no trees on the mountain. Being in the adirondacks I would love it their with my hunting dog because most of the time it had to be 30degrees to35 degrees and when their was no water in the ocean the sun would heat up the earth and It was at that time I would be looking for the other sex
