Best Answer

Sometimes the water hit parts of the glaciers that would get it dirty. The water is also dirty because there is dirt and thins fall into the water that is dirty. Or maybe when the rocks under the snow goes down the hill it leaves the dirt behind.

Reasons for gradation of glaciers?

Being made of ice, glaciers retreat when the rate of melt exceeds the rate of growth. That is, of course, the simple answer.

It also appears that the process is accelerating inasmuch as surface water on glaciers remains unfrozen.

Why you should study glaciers?

Glaciers may seem like an unimportant, uninteresting topic, but it has made significant changes to the landscape in nearly every area of the world. Even what are today very warm areas, glaciers could have existed millions of years ago. Results of glaciers include "U" shaped valleys with the edges scratched/polished by the things the glaciers carries. Glaciers also have incredible moving strength. Boulders have been known to be moved hundreds of miles from their original position.
