AI overview
A moraine is a pile of rock and debris that accumulates along the sides or at the end of a glacier as it moves and erodes the landscape. Moraines are important because they reveal where glaciers have been and help us understand how glaciers have shaped the land over time.

冰磧（英語：Moraine），又稱冰磧作用，大致上可分為下列兩種情形：形成丘陵或平原。 冰磧丘陵指任何一種冰川消融之後，在表磧內磧中的磧幾乎都沉流到冰川的谷底，和底磧、中碛合稱為基磧，這些冰磧沉積物隨著時間流逝，跟著谷底的地形和強風，逐漸變成高低起伏的大小丘陵，因此稱為冰磧丘陵。冰川越大，丘陵就越大，例如：大陸冰川。 冰磧平原為另一種情況是冰河侵蝕了河道後的碎屑，隨著冰河流動到較為溫暖的地方融化後，碎屑在原地堆積形成冰磧平原。
