 The way glacial processes interact with other landscape elements, particularly hillslope and fluvial processes, is an important aspect of Plio-Pleistocene landscape evolution and its sedimentary record in many high mountain environments.Environments that have been relatively recently glaciated but are no longer may still show elevated landscape change rates compared to those that have never been glaciated.Nonglacial geomorphic processes which nevertheless have been conditioned by past glaciation are termed paraglacial processes.
