Synopsis

This page shows six images. There are three at the top of the page and three at the bottom of the page. The top images are about rivers and the bottom images are about glaciers. Each image is surrounded by an image border. There is a locator dot shown, which will be at the top left of the page when the image is the correct way up.

The image in the top left shows a cross section of an upland river valley. It has steep sides and forms a V shaped valley.

The image in the bottom left of the page shows a cross section of a glacier. The side walls are very steep, nearly vertical. The valley bottom is gently rounded forming a U shaped valley.

The image in the top centre of the page is a cross section showing a river flowing from the left as a stream, to the right as a river.
