  34. RESOURCES Glaciers, Climate and Landscapes-Zach Smith Included in Resource CD http://www.physicalgeography.net/fundamentals/10ae.html Physical geography.net chapter on glaciation includes some great animations and readable descriptions. http://www.physicalgeography.net/fundamentals/10ag.html Physical geography.net chapter on periglacial landforms

  35. RESOURCES http://www.physicalgeography.net/fundamentals/10af.html Physical geography.net chapter on glacial landforms. Excellent discussion of erosional and depositional landforms. http://palaeo.gly.bris.ac.uk/palaeofiles/permian/glaciation.html Nice condensed discussion of the Milankovitch Cycle and why glaciation occurs

  36. RESOURCES http://nsidc.org/cryosphere/glaciers/questions/components.html The National Snow and Ice Center page describing components of a glacier. http://www.colorado.edu/geography/class_homepages/geog_1011_sum08/GlacialLandscapes_Bowen.PDF This PPT converted into a PDF provides an excellent catalog of glacial landforms.
