Case study(ies) of glaciated environment(s) at local scale: fundamental glacial processes, landscape outcomes and field data engagement
You must study a real glaciated landscape in detail. You need to explain how glacial processes shaped it and use actual field evidence to support your answers.
Real World
The Cwm Idwal corrie in Snowdonia, Wales, shows classic abrasion striations on its bedrock floor and a rock lip formed by differential plucking — features geographers measure and map during fieldwork visits.
Exam Focus
Name specific landforms and link them explicitly to a named process; vague answers like 'glacial erosion formed this' rarely score top marks.
