During the summer in Greenland, significant melting of snow and ice occurs, particularly in coastal regions and lower elevations. However, not all snow melts; some areas, especially the higher elevations and the interior ice sheet, retain snow and ice year-round. The extent of melting varies each year based on temperature and climate conditions. Overall, summer melting contributes to rising sea levels and indicates broader climate change impacts.

Yes, there are many glaciers on the mountain above about 8,000 feet where snow and ice don't melt. Hundreds of inches fall every year on Paradise Ranger station which is around 5500 feet, and it often doesn't completely melt until late June or July at that elevation. But it does all melt. You have to get above 7-8 thousand feet, depending on the year, to find snow that does not melt.


How can you know when the snow is going to melt?

The snow will melt when temperatures rise above freezing for an extended period of time. Factors such as sunlight, air temperature, and ground temperature can all contribute to the melting process. Monitoring weather forecasts can help predict when snow is likely to melt.


Which mountain has snow year round?

Lots of mountains have snow all the year round. The mountain just has to be high enough that the average temperature is below 0°C most of the year, and the few days in summer which are above 0°C are not enough to melt all the snow which fell during the long winter. Examples are the Himalayes, the Andes, the Alps etc.

What is snow salt?

Snow salt, also known as rock salt or ice melt, is a type of salt used to melt snow and ice on roads, sidewalks, and other surfaces. It works by lowering the freezing point of water, causing the ice to melt more quickly. Snow salt is commonly spread before or during snowfall to prevent the buildup of ice.
