Glacial polish

Earth Science
    Polished bedrock surfaces left behind after melting of glacial ice. the polishing is probably due to very fine grained rock flour carried at the base of the ice.




Glacial, английский
  1. Excruciatingly slow, inspired by the inch per year movement of glaciers example

  2. (adjective) (a) of or relating to the presence and activities of ice and glaciers, as in glacial erosion.

(c) pertaining to an ice age or region of glaciation. gg part 629 - glossary 629-36 (430-vi-nssh, 2008)

Glacial ghost, английский
    The whaler hope had chased a quarry as far as the ice cliffs of antarctica where it managed to give them the slip. they were about to sail away in search of other prey when the great ice barrier began to break up and calve. large chunks fell away opening up several chasms. suddenly, to the horror of hope’s crew, a spectral ship sailed out of one of the inlets, sails in tatters and hull splintered, with seven ice-encrusted human figures standing or sitting on deck. quelling his crew’s terrified mutterings of “flying dutchman,” captain brighton ordered a whaleboat to be launched and rowed across to the “phantom.” in the master’s cabin he found a man sitting at his desk, pen in hand, apparently entering something in the log book. he was, however, as solidly flash-frozen as the men on deck and his wife in the next door cabin. his final entry in the log read “no food for 71 days. i am the only one left alive,” and the date of may 4, 1823, indicated that the schooner jenny had been trapped in the ice for thirty-seven and one-half years.


Glacial groove, английский

Glacial quarrying (plucking), английский
    A common mechanical weathering process in alpine glaciated terrain where glacial ice frozen into cracks in the bedrock literally "pluck" rock material from the valley floor.

Pyroclastic, английский
  1. Pertaining to fragmented (clastic) rock material formed by a volcanic explosion or ejection from a volcanic vent.

  2. An igneous rock composed of angular rock fragments that originate from a volcanic explosion.

  3. (adj.) pertaining to clastic rock particles produced by explosive, aerial ejection from a volcanic vent. such materials may accumulate on land or under water. compare - epiclastic, volcaniclastic, clastic. g. smith & hp

  4. General term for any rock composed of material ejected explosively from
