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.
The melted water at the base of a glacier acts as a lubricant, reducing friction between the ice and the land beneath it. This helps the glacier slide over the land more easily, contributing to the movement of the glacier.
A glacier is a mass of ice that forms on land. It is created from the accumulation and compaction of snow over many years.
