Russian term

долины боковых притоков

Russian to English Science Geology Geomorphology
"Мощные ледники, часто перекрывая долины боковых притоков или долины, через которые происходит сток из горных впадин и котловин, приводят к образованию крупных озёр объёмом в сотни и тысячи кубических километров воды."

У меня вопрос: можно ли назвать долины боковых притоков боковыми долинами, а "долины, через которые происходит сток из горных впадин и котловин" - долинами стока?
