What force moves a glacier downhill?
Glaciers can slide down slope for several reasons. First, a glacier is made of ice, which is frozen water. Liquid water is slippery. That is important to remember. Second, gravity is pulling on them making them want to move downhill. Third, when ice is put under a lot of pressure, it can melt. The pressure above the bottom of the glacier can cause some melting on the bottom layer. That can make the glacier slide. Fourth, the sun shining on the top of the glacier can make the top of the glacier melt. The water from that melting can go to the bottom of the glacier and help lubricate the bottom. That can help it slide. Mountain glaciers are always sliding downhill. Snow replenishes glaciers and adds ice to the top. If glaciers melt faster than they are replenished they vanish. Some mountain glaciers have vanished within the last 100 years. A few more are likely to vanish in the next decade.
