what are bowl shaped depressions formed by swirling gravel?
slumps
cirques
potholes
kettles
Brief Explanations
Potholes are bowl - shaped depressions formed by swirling gravel in rivers or streams. The swirling motion of water - carried gravel acts like a grinding tool, eroding the bedrock to create these depressions. Slumps are mass - movement events (landslides). Cirques are bowl - shaped depressions formed by glacial erosion (not by swirling gravel). Kettles are depressions formed by the melting of blocks of ice left by glaciers.
