Fjord Norway

Fjord is formed when a glacier cuts a U-shaped valley by abrasion of the surrounding bedrock. Glacial melting is accompanied by rebound of Earth's crust as the ice load and eroded sediment is removed (also called isostatic or glacial rebound). In some cases this rebound is faster than sea level rise. Fjord Norway
