A "slow moving river of ice" is a glacier.
A slow moving chunk of ice floating down a river is a "floe".
Depending on when it was formed, the size and speed it is moving it could be either an Avalanche or Glacier. If it is an incredibly old, slow moving, large, ice mass it is likely a Glacier; however if it is a quickly moving, small (relatively), ice mass it is an Avalanche.

A slow-moving piece of ice on a mountain is called a glacier. Glaciers form from compacted snow that gradually transforms into ice over time, and they flow slowly under the influence of gravity. As they move, they can shape the landscape through erosion and sediment deposition.
Yes, a glacier is indeed a huge, slow-moving sheet of ice. It forms from accumulated snowfall that compresses over time, transforming into dense ice. Glaciers flow under the influence of gravity, often moving at rates that can vary from a few centimeters to several meters per day. They play a crucial role in shaping landscapes and influencing global sea levels.
A slow moving river of ice is known as a glacier. Glaciers form over time as layers of snow accumulate and compress into ice. Glaciers flow downhill under the force of gravity, shaping the landscape as they move.
A slowly moving mass or river of ice formed by the accumulation and compaction of snow on mountains or near the poles.
A slow-moving river of ice is called a glacier. Glaciers form when snow accumulates and compresses into ice over time, flowing downhill under the force of gravity. Glaciers can carve out valleys, carry debris, and shape the landscape as they move.
A slow-moving body of ice is called a glacier. Glaciers form over time as snow accumulates and compacts into ice. They can carve out valleys, shape the landscape, and contribute to rising sea levels as they melt.

Ice melts because the atoms around the ice are moving faster (because they are warmer). So the faster moving atoms bump into the slow ones (the ice), and make the slow particles move faster a little bit at a time. and the slow particles make the fast ones slow down a little bit. Until all particles are moving the same speed. this is how ice melts.

ice is water. its just that the molecules of water slow down the vibrations that are moving and they turn into a solid, and what you get is Ice
No. A glacier is a mass of moving snow and ice.
