Fjord is steep-sided inlet of the sea characteristic of glaciated regions. Fjords probably resulted from the scouring by glaciers of valleys formed by any of several processes, including faulting and erosion by running water. When the regions occupied by these glaciers subsided, the valleys were drowned by the sea. The fjord coast lines of Norway, Scotland, Greenland, Alaska, British Columbia, S Chile, S New Zealand, and Antarctica are examples. A fjord differs from most estuaries in its sheer, parallel walls, often extending far below the water surface, and in its many branches of similar form. Often shallow at the mouth, fjords are frequently very deep farther inland. Sognafjord (Norway) is 4,000 ft (1,220 m) deep and over 100 mi (160 km) long. Loch Moran, Scotland (1,017 ft/310 m), is a typical fjord but is separated from the sea. Norwegian fjords are noted for their grandeur.

mb, rasanya yang kat Yugoslavia dengan Vancouver tu bukan fjord tapi 'dalmatian' (kalau tak salah) coast. Tapi fjord ni mmg banyak kat Scandinavia (hence that spelling) dengan New Zealand. Loch2 kat Scotland kebanyakannya fjord in a certain way tapi nothing beats the beauty of the Norwegian fjords.

nak gambaq ....sob sob ade tak gambar ok yeah dalamation yess BLESSSSSSSSSSSSSS YOU..i lupa lak
good clever..

ni gambaran secara ilustrasi fjord....



Fjord



A fjord (also spelled fiord) is a narrow inlet of the sea situated between cliffs or steep slopes. Fjords exist where glaciers once formed on mountains bordering coastal areas. The glaciers carved out glacial valleys downslope. Later, when temperatures warmed, the glaciers melted and the sea level rose, flooding the valleys. Fjords frequently exceed 300 m (1,000 ft) below sea level in depth, and they may be more than 6 km (4 mi) wide and more than 161 km (100 mi) long. If the water of a fjord were drained, a typical glacier-carved U-shaped valley with steep rock walls would be revealed.

ok eva nak paste some info about fjord

A fjord (pronounced FEE-ord or fyord, SAMPA: ['fi:3:d] or ['faI3:d]; sometimes written fiord) is a glacially overdeepened valley, usually narrow and steep-sided, extending below sea level and filled with salt water.

Fjords are found in locations where current or past glaciation extended to sea level. A fjord is formed when a glacier (carving its typical U-shaped valley) meets the sea and melts. This leaves a narrow, steep sided valley into which the sea floods. The flood creates a narrow, deep lake (sometimes as deep as 1300m) connected to the sea. The terminal moraine pushed down the valley by the glacier is left underwater at the fjord's entrance, causing the water at the neck of the fjord to be shallower than the main body of the fjord behind it.

This shallow threshold and the protection afforded by the valley's sides generally means that fjords are excellent natural harbours. Consequently fjords often provide the home-port to fishing fleets, and in industrialised locations have come to be used for fish farming and ship building.

The word fjord comes from the Scandinavian languages, and is cognate to firth. In Scandinavia, fjord is used for narrow inlets in Norway, Denmark and western Sweden, whereas the name Fj鋜d is used in a synonymous manner for narrow inlets on Sweden's Baltic Sea coast, and in most Swedish lakes. This latter term is also used for bodies of water off the coast of Finland where Swedish is spoken. Note that the uses for the words fjord and especially for the eastern form fj鋜d are more general in the Scandinavian languages, than in English. Fjord in the English sense is taken from a type of fjords found in Norway and in parts of Sweden.

Fjords are found all along the coast of Norway, Iceland and Greenland, in the southwest corner of New Zealand (see Fiordland), and on the south and west coasts of Alaska. The west coast of Scotland also features fjords (called "sea lochs"), and the long fjord-like bays of the New England coast are sometimes referred to as "fiards". The largest fjord in the world is Sognefjorden in Norway.

ok may be apa yg eva paste nie mungkin off topicff: tapi bleh memberi gambaran mengenai formation of fjord... soo eva ambik  The Formation of the Ilulissat Icefjord di Greenland today yg bleh memberi gambaran mengenai pembentukkan fjord secara am.. contoh terdekat je la kot.. may be pembentukkan lebih kurang sama seperti Fjord kat Scandinavia ...







(first pic: 70 million years ago, Greenland is covered with green vegetation; the climat is warm.)

(second pic: During the iceage, Greenland is covered with ice, and is pressed down because of the thick ice cover)

(third pic: 10.000 years ago, the ice draws back, watch the ice-tongue! This ice-tongue will cause the deep icefjord of Ilulissat)

(last pic: Present: The icefjord is created. You can clearly see the "threshold", over which the icebergs are pressed, when the fjord is overfilled with icebergs. In summer time when the ice cap "calves" lots of ice, the fjord is completely filled with icebergs. Every time a new piece of ice breaks off from the icecap, around 3 km. (2 miles) the icebergs are pushed over the threshold and begin to float to the North )
