What kind of glacier is Vatnajokull Glacier?
Vatnajökull Glacier is an ice cap glacier located in Iceland. It is the largest glacier in Europe by volume and covers an area of around 8,100 square kilometers. Vatnajökull is a temperate glacier, meaning it has a mixture of ice at its base and can flow due to meltwater lubricating its movement.
Which part of valley glacier moves the fastest?
The center of a valley glacier moves the fastest due to reduced friction from surrounding valley walls and terrain. This faster flow in the center can cause the glacier to stretch and crack, creating crevasses.
Is glacier canyon a real glacier?
No, a glacier canyon is not a real glacier. A glacier canyon is a canyon formed by the movement of a glacier over time, carving out the landscape as it flows.
Dose a valley glacier or a contenental glacier or both cover entire land areas?
Valley glaciers are formed in high altitudes (e.g. mountains) and continental glaciers are formed in high latitudes (e.g. Greenland). Therefore, they both cover land areas but continental glaciers generally cover more area.
What do you call the tip of a glacier?

yes...
What kind of glaciers are Antarctica and Alpine?
Antarctica is a continental glacier. Alpine glaciers are a different type of glacier.
What is a confined glacier?
A confined glacier is a glacier that is confined by topography. For example, a glacier that forms on a mountain. Continental glaciers, by contrast, are not affected. The glaciers on Antarctica and Greenland are continental glaciers. The glaciers at Glacier Bay National Park, or on a mountain are confined glaciers.
