Why is the weight of snow needed to make glacier ice?
The weight of accumulated snow compresses lower layers, causing them to undergo a process called firnification, where air is squeezed out and the snow turns into firn, a dense, grainy type of snow. Over time, this firn further compresses into glacier ice due to the pressure and weight of the overlying snow and ice layers.

What is the middle layer of a glacier?
The middle layer of a glacier is called the "firn zone". This layer is composed of partially compacted snow that is in the process of being transformed into ice. The firn zone is found between the surface snow accumulation zone and the deeper layers of glacier ice.
