One is bigger than the other one
what is the difference between alpine and continental glacires?
They difference between them is where there flow. Continental glaciers are enormous ice sheets, and are found in Greenland and Antarctica. Alpine glaciers form in mountain valleys.
There are 2 main types of glaciers, Continental is one, they float away from central regions. The second is alpine or valley which are the glaciers that flow down the valley from the mountain.
Continental glaciers smooth the landscape because continental glaciers are flat unlike the rough shapes of Alpine glaciers.
Antarctica is a continental glacier. Alpine glaciers are a different type of glacier.
i dont know or care
Hhh
I only know that alpine glaciers can carve deep u-shaped valleys in the mountains.
Alpine glaciers leave behind U-shaped valleys, deep, high-altitude lakes and cliffs. Continental glaciers flow outwards scraping the landscape clean, making fairly flat lands and lakes
beacause alpine glaciers are bad for the enviromental energy called phleux that makes chemicals interact with each other smoothing the landscape

Glaciers are ice sheets. There are 2 kinds of glaciers: alpine glaciers and continental glaciers. Alpine glaciers are formed when valleys above the snow line fill with ice and snow. Snow is compacted and gradually begins to flow downhill due to gravity. -Cham11
