How a glacial lobe formed?

Answer 1

• It is made of approximately 500km by 80km by 2.5km of solid ice
• It is the world's longest valley glacier
• It runs along part of the Lambert Graben
• Each year, 35 km2 of ice from this glacier go into the Prydz Bay.
• Holds the Guinness World Record for the World's Largest Glacier

• It drains 8% of the Antarctic ice sheet to the east and south of the Prince Charles Mountains
• It was delineated (sketched and/or described or represented) and named in 1952 by American geographer John H. Rosco
• It was named for Bruce P. Lambert, Director of National Mapping in the Australian Department of National Development

Answer 2

I think... Glaciers begin to form when snow remains in the same area year-round, where enough snow accumulates to transform into ice. Each year, new layers of snow bury and compress the previous layers. This compression forces the snow to re-crystallize, forming grains similar in size and shape to grains of sugar. Gradually the grains grow larger and the air pockets between the grains get smaller, causing the snow to slowly compact and increase in density. After about two winters, the snow turns into firn -- an intermediate state between snow and glacier ice. At this point, it is about half as dense as water. Over time, larger ice crystals become so compressed that any air pockets between them are very tiny. In very old glacier ice, crystals can reach several inches in length. For most glaciers, this process takes over a hundred years.

Answer 3

The Lambert Glacier is in Antarctica. (The Fisher Glacier is its prominent western tributary.) A link is provided to the Wikipedia article on this, the world's longest glacier.
