Glacier is commonly used in the noun form for all of its meanings. The most common definition is a huge mass of ice slowly flowing over a land mass, formed from compacted snow in an area where it accumulates. A simpler way of putting it is a floating chunk of accumulated ice and snow.
Glaciers are huge masses of ice slowly flowing over a land mass, formed from compacted and recrystallized snow in an area where snow accumulation exceeds melting and sublimation. They can either descend from high mountains, as in valley glaciers, or move outward from centers of accumulation, as in continental glaciers. They are like a great river of ice, slowly moving and crushing rock underneath it, shaping the landscape.
a large mass of ice and they form where snow falls more than melts
a big piece of ice on a moutian
A glaicer is a mass of ice over 1 sq. mile big. Glaicers are usually around the poles but, latley have been shrinking because of global warming according to scientists. Glaciers are pure water, for the parts that are water. They tend to move downhill and scrape up rocks, dirt, and debris in their path. Although when melted and flitered contain no viruses or bacteria. They also tend to preserve
A glacier is a river of ice, it acts like a normal river but just frozen, sometimes when large movement occurs, it will rip a hole on the surface of the glacier, these are called crevasses, they are sometimes virtually bottomless, glaciers also carve out mountain ranges over millions of years.
A glacier is a slowly moving mass or river of ice formed by the accumulation and compaction of snow on mountains or near the poles.
glaciers are large masses of ice
Ice
a glacier snout is the front of the glacier :)
A melting glacier gets smaller, but a growing glacier gets bigger.
* Franz Josef Glacier * Fox Glacier * Tasman Glacier * Hukawai Glacier * Haast Glaciers
What did the glacier say to the other glacier? ICE ICE BABY
i dont know like a valley
Larger rocks deposited closer to the glacier. The rocks form a sorted deposit
* Fryingpan Glacier * Nisqually Glacier * Paradise Glacier * Pyramid Glacier * Puyallup Glacier * South Tahoma Glacier * Tahoma Glacier * Success Glacier * Sarvent Glacier
It is a valley glacier
yes glacier canyon is a real glacier
Penck Glacier (Tanzania); Pine Island Glacier, Polar Times Glacier, Priestley Glacier (Antarctica); Panchchuli Glacier, Pindari Glacier (India); Panmar Glacier, Passu Glacier (Pakistan); Pasterze Glacier (Austria); Platigliole Glacier, Praz-SecGlacier, Presena Glacier (Italy); Peyto Glacier, Pemberton Icefield (Canada); Pico de Orizaba, Popocatépetl, Glacier (Mexico); Portage Glacier, Princeton Glacier (Alaska); etc
It is apline glacier

There are quite a few glaciers to hike to in Glacier, but probably the most-visited glacier is Grinnell Glacier, located in the Many Glacier Valley.
A melting glacier gets smaller, but a growing glacier gets bigger.
Grinnell Glacier in MT Glacier NP
No. This is a continental glacier. A valley glacier is a glacier found on high mountains.
