Landform Review
Across
- 4. slow moving masses of ice formed by the accumulation and compaction of snow
- 8. low areas of land between hills or mountains, typically with a river or stream flowing through it
- 9. deep narrow valleys with steep cliff walls, cut into the earth by running water
- 10. natural depressions or holes in the ground caused by the collapsing of the surface layer
- 13. large, flat areas of land that are raised SHARPLY above the surrounding land
- 14. small, natural waterways with a current
- 15. landforms that are raised steeply, forming peaks above the surrounding land (much higher and steeper than hills)
- 16. mounds of sand or loose sediment on the sea coast or in a desert
Down
- 1. mountains that open downward to a pool of molten rock below the surface of the earth
- 2. landforms that are raised naturally (not as high or steep as mountains)
- 3. flat or neatly flat sections of land with fertile soils and abundant grassy meadows
- 5. pieces of land completely surronded by water on all sides
- 6. sources of water rising from the ground (groundwater)
- 7. areas of low-lying ground along streams and rivers
- 11. a natural underground space large enough for a human to enter
- 12. the flat areas of land at the mouth of rivers, formed from deposition
