What is the difference between a glacier and an ice mound?
One is smaller
What is it called when a piece of a glacier breaks off?
When a piece of a glacier breaks off, it is called calving. This can result in the formation of icebergs.
Is a glacier a mass of ice or a mass of sand?
The answer to the question is a glacier is a mass of ice.
How does floating ice around a glacier slow its disappearance?
Floating ice around a glacier, often in the form of icebergs or sea ice, acts as an insulating barrier that reduces heat exchange between the warmer ocean water and the glacier. This insulation helps to slow down the melting of the glacier's ice face where it meets the water. Additionally, the presence of floating ice can obstruct the flow of warmer currents, further protecting the glacier from accelerated melting. Consequently, this floating ice can significantly prolong the lifespan of the glacier.
What is melting water at base of the glacier that helps the ice move over 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.
What is the difference between an ice berg and a glacier?
an ice berg is a chunk off off a glacier and a glacier is a big ice patch caused by snow
What is the difference between a glacier and an ice mound?

What is the difference between glacier and gorge?
Glacier is a large mass of ice while George is formed when a river flows through rocks that may have little space in between
What are bergs?
When a glacier or very large ice burg has a large chunk of ice break away from the main body of ice, the piece that breaks away is known as a calf.
What is it called when a piece of a glacier breaks off?
When a piece of a glacier breaks off, it is called calving. This can result in the formation of icebergs.
Tip the ice burg on club penguin with me?
its impossible to tip the ice burg.
How old was the iceberg that the Titanic hit?
There is no way to know how old it was. Today ice samples are taken of glaciers that can tell the age of the glacier, but to tell the age of an ice burg is nearly impossible without a sample.
