All about glaciers?
Glaciers are fallen snow :thats how it's formed
What are formed where more snow falls then can melt?
Glaciers are formed in areas where more snow accumulates than can melt over time. This excess snow compacts and transforms into ice, creating a massive body of ice that flows under its own weight. Glaciers typically develop in polar regions or high mountains where temperatures remain low enough for snow to persist year-round.
Does glaciers come from hydrosphere?
Yes, glaciers form from the hydrosphere through the accumulation and compaction of snow over many years. As snow accumulates, it compresses into ice, eventually forming glaciers.
Where do glaciers grow and how do they grow?
Glaciers usually grow in Alaska. Though they are found in mountain ranges. The weirdest part is glaciers can grow in every single continent but, Australia. In the tropics glaciers occur only on high mountains.
Are glaciers less dense then fresh snow?
No, glaciers are more dense than fresh snow. Over time, layers of snow accumulate and compress under their own weight to form dense glacial ice. This densification process reduces air pockets within the snow, resulting in the formation of denser ice in glaciers.
What are the 2 types of glacier erosien?
Glaciers are ice sheets. There are 2 kinds of glaciers: alpine glaciers and continental glaciers. Alpine glaciers are formed when valleys above the snow line fill with ice and snow. Snow is compacted and gradually begins to flow downhill due to gravity. -Cham11
Glaciers can only form when?
Glaciers can only form when snow accumulates over time and compacts into ice. This process requires a cold climate that allows the snow to persist without melting. Additionally, the weight of the ice must exceed the rate at which it melts or sublimates.

What is a large mass of ice called?
It is called a floe, glacier, or maybe an iceberg.
Are glaciers rock coverd in snow?
No. Glaciers are slowly moving masses of ice.
When can glaciers form?
Glaciers form when the rate of snow fall exceeds the rate of melting.
Does Jerusalem Israel have glaciers?
No. Jerusalem has snow occasionally, but is far too warm for glaciers. Even Mount Hermon, which is much higher, loses its snow in the summer.
Why does glaciers and polar ice caps have greatest amount of fresh water?

How do glaciers occur?
Alot of snow packed together....I think
