Glaciers

Ok, this answer is pretty obvious; NO, OK JK, the answer is YES! Because... glaciers cause a lot of damage by making it cold, maybe a little death, and it could kill many plants. Thanks, the mysteries.:)

The end or outer margin of a glacier is called the glacier terminus. This is where the glacier ends and begins to melt or calve into the surrounding environment, such as a body of water or land. Changes in the glacier terminus are closely monitored by scientists to understand the health and movement of the glacier.

The sea ice will melt, and less ice will be reflecting the sunlight. The water absorbs the heat from the sunlight, and the heated water will melt more of the ice. That way animals woudl not be able to adapt to their habitat.

A cirque glacier is a small glacier that occupies a cirque or rests against the headwall of a cirque. A cirque is a deep, horseshoe-shaped hollow with steep walls which was created by erosive activity of glaciers.

According to Wikipedia, Yosemite National Park has several glaciers, but they are small in formation. Most of the glaciers are found in areas where there is a great deal of shade, like the north and northeast facing regions.

The largest glacier in Yosemite is the Lyell Glacier and it expands over 165 acres. In 1871, most of the glaciers within the park were discovered by John Muir, like the Merced Glacier.

Glaciers are large masses of snow, recrystallized ice and rock debris that accumulate in great quantities and begin to flow outwards and downwards under the pressure of their own weight. Glaciers form when yearly snowfall in a region far exceeds the amount of snow and ice that melts in a given summer. In this way, massive quantities of material accumulate in relatively small periods of geologic time. The molecules of ice being close together and because of the pressure means it would need a lot of water to make a little ice.

The world's tallest mountain -- Mt Everest at 29,029' (8,848 m) is located in Asia.

The world's largest volcano -- Mauno Loa -- about the size of New Mexico, is located on Hawaii's big island of Hawai'i.

At Fox and Franz Josef glaciers in New Zealand, the land feature you would find are massive rivers of ice flowing down the valleys of the Southern Alps. These glaciers are some of the most accessible in the world, attracting visitors who come to witness their spectacular beauty and unique environment.

Glaciers can appear to be white, blue, or even black. They can look white when covered in snow, blue due to ice compression, or black from debris and sediment.

well you tell me if your a crack head then its nothing hahaha or maybe its your brain saying hello to taylor swift lol. that doesn't make sense, i knw. anyways back to answering the questions. sike! im not answering the question lol. anyways if you think im funny let me know. you can call me at 1-888-588-2300

Air bubbles in ice trap whatever was in the air at the time the ice froze. By looking at ice core samples, we can tell what the atmosphere was like thousands of years ago. There are also layers of volcanic ash that record eruption times. It is another form of reading years and what events, such as weather, occured in those years.

False. Human civilizations did not have to wait for glaciers to spread before growing crops. They developed agriculture independently in various regions around the world as a way to secure reliable food sources. The spread of glaciers would have made agriculture more challenging due to the colder temperatures and ice cover.

Glaciers create various landforms such as U-shaped valleys, moraines, drumlins, and fjords through processes like erosion, deposition, and melting. For example, as glaciers move, they erode the land beneath them, forming U-shaped valleys. When glaciers retreat, they leave behind piles of debris called moraines. Drumlins are elongated hills formed by glaciers depositing sediments, and fjords are deep, narrow inlets created by glaciers moving through valleys and subsequently melting.

Glacers are formed by hundreds of years of constant snow fall on the earth. As the snow accumulates, it creates weight and pressure on the snow below causing large chunks of ice to form and grow in height and length.

There are continental glaciers in and around the Arctic and Antarctic circles, and covering parts of Greenland and other polar region islands.

Glaciers are not made of rock; they are made of ice. Glaciers can contain rocks, but not of any particular type. Rather, they carry whatever type of rock they are going over or have gone over.

Giant glaciers are called ice sheets. These massive expanses of ice cover large areas of land and are found in Antarctica and Greenland. Ice sheets can be several kilometers thick and have a significant impact on global climate.

They can be very dangerous to ships passing by, especially if it is foggy. A lot of times glaciers will split causing splinters of icebergs. These can be extremely dangerous because they can be mostly underwater.

Other than that, the edge of a glacier on land can easily kill with falling pieces of ice; this is a growing fear in areas where they are tourist destinations, since the ice melts easier and is even less predictable than before.

Slips on the ice can injure just as much as the ice falling on you can; there are always crevasses and slips that you can fall down; and of course you are standing on a frozen river.

Also, ships are in grave dangers when passing through icy waters. Since, as said before, glaciers can be mostly underwater, ship's can hit them and burst through the metal. An example is the Titanic.

Glaciers retreat due to a combination of increased melting at their lower ends and reduced snowfall at their upper ends. This melting is often caused by rising temperatures due to climate change. As glaciers lose more ice than they gain, they shrink and retreat.

Moraines carried at the bottom of glaciers are called basal or ground moraines. They consist of rocks, soil, and other debris that have been plucked and eroded by the moving glacier. Basal moraines are typically deposited at the glacier's terminus or along its path as the glacier retreats.

Glaciers can be found in polar regions like Antarctica and Greenland, as well as in high-altitude mountainous areas around the world. Some examples include the glaciers in the Alps, Himalayas, Andes, and Rocky Mountains.
