This glossary provides definitions and examples of common alpine glacial landforms. The landforms are divided into three categories: erosional landforms, depositional landforms, and ice features. Each definition is accompanied by a photo of the feature, and many also include a topographic map showing the same feature with the camera position marked to indicate where the photo was taken from. An online exercise is also included to allow students to test their knowledge.
