Question
Chapter 28, Problem 13TE
To determine
The difference between a rochemoutonnee and a drumlin.
Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 13TE
The difference between the rochemoutonnee and drumlin is given in Table 1.
Explanation of Solution
The difference between a rochemoutonnee and a drumlin is given in the table below:
S.No. | Roche moutonnee | Drumlin |
---|---|---|
1. | These are indicated by small, asymmetrical hills. | It is a glacial sediment of an elongated hill shape. It is formed by continental glaciation and is in the direction of ice flow. |
2. | Roche moutonnee have rough surface at the downstream side. | They have a steep, blunt end in the upstream and a tapered gentle slope on the downstream side. |
Table 1
Conclusion:
Therefore, the difference between the rochemoutonnee and drumlin is given in Table 1.
