Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Névé is the granular snow that slowly compacts and transforms into ice under pressure, eventually becoming glacial ice. Ablation refers to the melting or loss of ice from a glacier. A cirque is a steep-walled, bowl-shaped depression in a mountain where a glacier may form. An esker is a narrow ridge of sediment deposited by a meltwater stream that once flowed under a glacier. A tarn is a small mountain lake or pool formed in a cirque basin.
