Are Icebergs the same as glaciers?
Glaciers are formed in cold mountain regions where the buildup of snow is heavy enough to turn the snow underneath to ice. This can happen over years, even centuries. Then the weight of the ice gradually pushes its way down the mountain, rather like a great frozen river. Ice caps is the name given to all the frozen ice that covers a mountain range, or a place or even a country or continent. So we talk about the Juneau ice cap in Alaska, the Greenland ice cap, and the Antarctic ice cap. These may have started as glaciers but got big enough to become an ice cap. Most ice caps have glaciers moving out at the edges.
