The area where you feel the burning sensation is in the ball of the foot â medically referred to as the forefoot â under the top or heads of the metatarsal bones, the five long bones in the feet that connect to the toe bones.
Glaciers erode the land in two ways, by plucking and abrasion. Plucking is the process when a glacier picks up rocks. The weight of a glacier makes it easy to break rocks and boulders in pieces.
Meltwater can create landforms through both erosion and deposition, and the environment is highly dynamic and in constant flux. Meltwater moves in many ways through a glacier, water can move on the glaciers surface (supraglacial channels), within the ice (englacial channels) and under the ice (subglacially).
