What else can I help you with?
Is water from a glacier more dense than ocean water?
The water from a melted glacier is less dense than the water of the seas.
Is glaciers included in the water cycle?
The way in which glaciers fit into the hydrologic cycle is by being able to hold a lot of frozen water. They also relate to the rock cycle in that they cause major erosion.
Why is ice in a glacier consider to be a mineral but water from a glacier is not?
By definition a mineral must be solid. Ice is solid. Water is not.
What is the front of a glacier?
The front of a glacier is called the terminus or snout. It is where the glacier meets the surrounding environment, such as water or land.
How do people destroy the water cycle?
People can disrupt the water cycle by pollution, deforestation, and excessive water extraction. These activities can lead to a decrease in precipitation, altered weather patterns, and ultimately impact ecosystems and communities that rely on water for survival.
Where does the stuff from a glacier go when it melts?
well, all of this water is sent out into the water of the planet. this water remains in the cycle untill it re freezes
How close are you to losing the water cycle?
As of 2013, we are not close to losing the water cycle, even though a decrease in precipitation has been noted.
If a region's forest are cut down will the amount of rainfall increase or decrease?
decrease because the trees are an important part of the water cycle
Is a glacier a waterbody?
A glacier is a water reservoir and is not considered a water body.
Is the water you drink maybe from dinosaurs time?
The Water Cycle is the cycle at which water precipitates, evaporates, and condenses. This cycle has been going on since the beginning of time. As a result, there is no such thing as 'new' water. The water you are drinking could be from the dinosaurs time, from a glacier or lake that was present at that time period. Of course, the water is cleaned, purified, bottled and sold.
If a regions forests are cut down do you think the amount of rainfall in that region will increase or decrease?
decrease, since trees are an important part in the cycle of water
Does having a bath during periods stop the periods?
No, having a bath during periods does not stop periods. Menstruation isdetermined by your menstrual cycle, water is amazing but it does not have the magical ability to stop time in order to stop menstruation.
Is water from a glacier more dense than ocean water?

What does calving mean in relation to glaciers?
Usually a variety of things - a combination of melting from below due to being submerged in water, melting from above, and a weak point for the whole thing to crack off. Gravity takes it from there.

Is water from glaciers drinkable?
The water from glaciers is drinkable. When drinking glacier water, the water must be filtrated first. Filtration of glacier water can be done with a coffee filter.
