    A U-shaped valley is an example of glacial erosion. A ridge separating two corries is called an arête. The process of water entering cracks in rock during the day and expanding at night, enlarging the cracks, is called frost wedging. The wearing away of rock by rock fragments carried by ice is called abrasion. Plucking is the term used to describe a glacier pulling away rock that it is frozen to. A feature formed when three or more corries cut back into the same mountain is called a cirque.
