River Formation

We tested weather or not a glacier would effect river formations. We thought that the glacier would produce a lot of water from melting and form a river.We found that underneath the glacier it made little rivers that fed into a large river outside of the glacier. The water went on top of the diatomaceous earth and formed a rivine in the earth. From the smaller rivers under the glacier some fed into smaller little streams that eventually fed back into the large river. We concluded that a glacier can effect river formations by melting and eventually creating a river.

We next decided to test if an explosion would effect river formation. This proved that it could not happen when we tested it. We tried to blow into straws and see if it would explode out. All that it did was form a little bubble and then it would pop and do nothing after that. We concluded that explosions do not effect river formations in the way that we tested it.
