Why do glaciers float and not sink to the bottom of the ocean?
Glaciers are made of ice, which is less dense than water. Therefore, fragments of glaciers that break off into water, called icebergs, will float.
As glaciers melt the land underneath sinks?
Yes, when glaciers melt, they contribute to rising sea levels rather than causing the land underneath to sink. The weight of the ice depresses the land beneath, and when it melts, the land gradually rebounds over time in a process known as isostatic rebound.
What are the different types of glaciers?
Ice Sheets Ice Shelves Ice Caps Ice Streams/Outlet Glaciers Icefields Mountain Glaciers Valley Glaciers Piedmont Glaciers Cirque Glaciers Hanging Glaciers Tidewater Glaciers

How is a continental and valley glaciers the same?
Continental glaciers and valley glaciers are both types of glaciers that form from accumulated snowfall. They both flow under the influence of gravity, albeit in different directions. While continental glaciers cover vast areas like an ice sheet, valley glaciers are confined to mountain valleys and flow down through them.
What are the two kinds of glaciers and are they different?
It is valley and continental glaciers they are different because continental glaciers are the largest, and valley glaciers are on the top of mountain peaks.
