Definition
- Fjords are one of the more prominent and spectacular landforms found on Earth, formed in areas that have been exposed to extensive glaciations. Fjords are glacially carved valleys, commonly termed U-shaped valleys or glacial troughs, that have been flooded by the sea during and after the glaciers that formed them retreated.
