Moraine is a noun referring to an accumulation of glacial debris (such as soil and rocks) carried or deposited by a glacier, or by a moving body of ice. It forms distinctive ridges or mounds along valleys and shorelines, helping scientists interpret past glacial activity. The term emphasizes material left behind by ice rather than the ice itself.
