    Glacial Movement

    Glacial movement is faster in the center of the glacier compared to the edges due to friction. The velocity is highest at the surface and decreases with depth due to basal friction and internal shearing stresses. Diagrams are provided to help explain how velocity varies both laterally across a glacier and with depth.

    Glacial Movement

    1. Use diagram A and


    explain why the velocity
    of ice varies between the
    centre of the glacier and
    the valley wall.
    2. Use diagram b to
    describe and explain how
    velocity of movement
    changes with depth.
