As the glacier flows north, it descends in elevation to about at its terminus.

Starting from the head at, the glacier flows downhill southward.

Between 11800and9200 ft, the glacier flows through a steep icefall that provides challenging climbing through a maze of seracs.

They always form in the same place because of the shape of the glacial valley in which the glacier flows.

The rest of the glacier flows north as well, with a glacier toe descending to around the toe turns northeast.

This time, it's the brilliant blue of the glacier ice that dazzles us.

He also warned that melting glacier ice has also exposed deep crevasses on the mountain.

That evening, we have our drinks cooled with blue glacier ice, plucked from the fjord.

Only once-deep glacier ice emits the cold color.

The 75p stamp features him working on a surface radar used to investigate the internal properties of glacier ice.

There's no challenge beyond his imagination, be it climbing a massive glacier or rescuing a senior citizen from a blazing building.

The highest peaks, as well as countless passes and massive glaciers, are located in this region.

In retreat, massive glaciers enveloped most of the landscape with great amounts of glacial deposits including gravel, sand, shale, and numerous sediments.

He also warned that melting glacier ice has also exposed deep crevasses on the mountain.

More alarming are the groans and cracks of the melting glacier that empties into the fjord.

It was the first time that the couple had witnessed a melting glacier.

The threat comes from an overgrown shark and octopus, which she saw escape from a melting glacier after being trapped for millions of years.

He will be ferried to a melting glacier by huskies to see global warming in action.

The banks of cloud far below, the melting glaciers.

The melting glaciers hide the diminution of the rains.

Researchers already knew that there was more dust-borne iron during the last ice age, much of it freed by melting glaciers.

When the last ice age ended, melting glaciers around the world caused sea level to rise.

When the ice sheets melted away several thousand years ago, the vendace survived by retreating into icy cold lakes below the melting glaciers.

Snowstorms quickly buried its exact location in a mountain glacier.

In the north, krafjord intersects through a barren and heavily eroded mountain glacier, where the municipality's highest point rises 1,638 meters above sea level.

Mountain glaciers, snow packs and lakes are shrinking due to global warming - reducing the meltwater many societies rely on to live.

Even today, frozen bodies of soldiers are still emerging as mountain glaciers thaw.

Mountain glaciers depend on snowfall for their formation.

Glaciers in the 21st century constitute an unfrozen hazard, as receding glaciers and ice packs push ocean levels higher.

Evidence for warming ranges from thermometer records to receding glaciers, melting permafrost, and the blooming dates of various plants.

The lake was formed by receding glaciers during the most recent ice age.

All three lakes were created when the terminal moraines of receding glaciers blocked their respective valleys, forming moraine-dammed lakes.

Climate change has caused receding glaciers, reduced stream and river flow, and shrinking lakes and ponds.

He accepts the evidence of change: shrinking glaciers, the loss of reflectivity (the albedo effect), methane leakage and soaring carbon emissions.

Rapidly shrinking glaciers are its most inescapable symptom.

Shrinking glaciers are a serious problem across much of the frozen world, and a highly visible sign of the warming climate.

The higher than average temperatures will also mean spreading deserts, shrinking glaciers and more outbreaks of disease.

Most alarming, the country's shrinking glaciers threaten drinking water supplies and hydroelectric plants.
