Climatic Geography
read the requirement carefully and do the questions contain group discussion(1,2,3,4,5) and whole class discussion (1,2,a,b)
1. What of the morphological measurements is most variable among drumlins on your map?
2. What of the measurements is least variable among the drumlins on your map?
3. What was the predominant direction of ice-flow? Is there a trend across the map?
4. Was the ice-flow velocity spatially variable or constant? Is there any trend ice-flow velocity?
5. Are there large differences in the heights of drumlins? What might explain this?
1a. Each group will share their findings with the whole class;
2a. How do morphological properties compare among maps compared to within maps? Why?
2b. Why are ice-flow velocities more difficult to infer than ice-flow directions?

1. What of the morphological measurements is most variable among drumlins on your map?
The morphological measurements depend on the length and the width. The length of A to B measurement is the most variable among the drumlins on the map.
2. What of the measurements is least variable among the drumlins on your map?
C to D width measurement is least variable among the drumlins on the map
3. What was the predominant direction of ice-flow? Is there a trend across the map?
The direction of ice-flow depends on the glacier surface, and the flow follows the direction of the sloping. The direction is north to south when considering “A” as the north and “B” as the south. The ice sheet moves from the steep slope towards the mild slope
4. Was the ice-flow velocity spatially variable or constant? Is there any trend ice-flow velocity?
The ice-flow velocity depends on the ice thickness, the surface slope, the ice properties, and bed properties. Then...
