what are two ways that water erodes the land
Erosion by Glaciers. Like flowing water, flowing ice erodes the land and deposits the material elsewhere. Glaciers cause erosion in two main ways: plucking and abrasion. Both are illustrated at this link: [Insert a link to an animation showing how glaciers cause erosion by plucking and erosion.] Plucking is the process by which rocks and other sediments are picked up by a glacier.
