Moraine is the material transported by the glacier. As the glacier moves downhill it acts like a bulldozer, pushing sediment in front of its snout as it goes. When the temperature rises (or glacier reaches lower altitudes) the ice melts at the snout of the glacier
What happens hen the ice melts in the formation of a terminal moraine?
Once the ice has melted, the terminal moraine can oftenform a dam, creating a ribbon lake
