Yes, glaciers are made of solid water. Glaciers form when snow accumulates over time and undergoes compaction and recrystallization, turning into ice. The weight of the accumulated ice causes it to flow slowly downhill, resulting in the formation of glaciers.
Yes, during the Carboniferous period (i.e. the time when most of our coal resources formed) the levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere were much much higher than they are now. This produced a greenhouse effect so strong that not only did the glaciers melt away but there was also no polar icecaps!
The Syndonic Period is the time between successive conjunctions of a planet with the sun.
Glaciers are made of ice that has been formed a long time ago.
No, during the dinosaurs time there was no ice on earth and glaciers were non-existent
Glaciations are the times during which glaciers grew and covered large parts of continents. An interglacial period is a geological time between glaciations.
During this period of time, glaciers start to form so the climate got hotter.
The ice age.
Glacers over the land near Michigan and Ontario that Melted over time creating these massive lakes.
Yes, glaciers are made of solid water. Glaciers form when snow accumulates over time and undergoes compaction and recrystallization, turning into ice. The weight of the accumulated ice causes it to flow slowly downhill, resulting in the formation of glaciers.
A glacial period is like the time of ice ages, when the most of the earth is covered in ice and snow.
A between-time is a period of time between two events.
At the beginning of time there were no mountains or glaciers, there were also no planets or stars. Mountains can tell us where glaciers existed by the shape of the valleys between them, a "U" shaped valley usually means a glacier once flowed down it.
Ice age
Current glaciers are still forming, but the most recent period of cooling and massive glaciation know as 'The Ice Age', occured in the Pleistocene, starting around 1.8 million years ago.
Time period = 1 / frequency. Frequency = 1 / time period.
