Due No due date Points 2 Questions 4 Time Limit None
Instructions
This is a lab practical where you are shown different types of views of valleys. Some views are from Google Street Views. Others
are video clips. You task is to decide if the valley was formed by glaciers, by rivers, by volcanic action, or by tectonic processes.
The glacial lecture (http://www.asu.edu/courses/gph111/BreezeLectures/33GlacialLandforms/33GlacialLandforms/index.htm?
tiq=t&c=467221) at slide 9 discusses the difference between stream and glacial-formed valleys. The volcano lecture and extensional
faulting lecture cover valleys formed by those processes. You may also find this supplemental material useful. But this information is
just helpful, to jog your memory.
