22. What Are Glaciers?
    What are glaciers? glaciers form when yearly snowfall in a region farexceeds the amount of snow and ice that melts in a given summer.  
    http://www.uvm.edu/whale/GlaciersWhatAre.html
    
    Extractions: 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. Go to What are the physical effects of glaciers? Return to Glaciers and the glacial ages?

    Extractions: Glaciers and Ice Sheets and Volcanic Eruptions Glaciers From: Driedger, 1986, A Visitor's Guide to Mount Rainier Glaciers: Pacific Northwest National Parks and Forests Association Glaciers exist where, over a period of years, snow remains after summer's end. They exist in environments of high and low precipitation and in many temperature regimes; they are found on all the continents except Australia and they span the globe from high altitudes in equatorial regions to the polar ice caps. There is a delicate balance between climatic factors that allows snow to remain beyond its season. ... Scientists and skiers alike can note that within a few days of falling, snowflakes have noticeably begun to change. ... The snowflakes are compressed under the weight of the overlying snowpack. Individual crystal near the melting point have slick liquid edges allowing them to glide along other crystal planes and to readjust the space between them. Where the crystals touch they bond together, squeezing the air between them to the surface or into bubbles. During summer we might see the crystal metamorphosis occur more rapidly because of water percolation between the crystals. By summer's end the result is firn a compacted snow with the appearance of wet sugar, but with a hardness that makes it resistant to all but the most dedicated snow shovelers! Several years are usually required for the snow to settle and to season into the substance we call

    http://pubs.usgs.gov/fs/fs133-99/
    
    Extractions: The world's glaciers react to and interact with changes in global and regional climates. Most mountain glaciers worldwide have been retreating since the latter part of the 19th century; global sea level has risen about 10 centimeters during the past century. Glaciers vary in size as a result of several factors, of which climate variation is probably the most important. The reasons we are interested in glacier variation include its connection to climate change and to global sea level The present volume of the Earth's glacier ice, if totally melted, represents about 80 meters in sea-level rise. From minimum (an interglacial epoch) to maximum (an ice-age epoch) volume of glacier ice on the continents, sea level has a range of 200 meters. For example, during the last glacial peak, about 20,000 years ago, sea level is estimated to have been 120 meters lower than it is today. During a warmer climatic interval in the last interglacial period, 125,000 years ago, sea level was about 6 meters higher than it is today; during an even warmer interval 3 million years ago, sea level is estimated to have been 25 to 50 meters higher. Sea-level changes, especially in low-lying coastal areas and on islands, have significant effects on human activities and facilities. White areas show ice sheets and other glaciers around the world. The white spots in the oceans are islands where glaciers are found. Reproduced from National Geographic WORLD (February 1977, no. 18, p. 6) with permission.

    Consists of a longterm program to monitor climate, glacier motion, and mass balance. Find research, maps, and glacier FAQs. The three glacier basins are South Cascade Glacier in Washington State, and Gulkana and Wolverine glaciers in Alaska  
    http://www-water-ak.usgs.gov/glaciology
    
    Extractions: Top of this page The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) operates a long-term "benchmark" glacier program to intensively monitor climate, glacier motion, glacier mass balance, glacier geometry, and stream runoff at a few select sites. The data collected are used to understand glacier-related hydrologic processes and improve the quantitative prediction of water resources, glacier-related hazards, and the consequences of climate change ( Fountain and others, 1997

28. Glaciers: Clues To Future Climate [USGS]
    US Geological Survey GeneralInterest Publication glaciers Clues to FutureClimate. glaciers Clues to Future Climate. By Richard S. Williams, Jr.,.  
    http://pubs.usgs.gov/gip/glaciers/
    
    Extractions: Glaciers: Clues to Future Climate This out-of-print General-Interest Publication has been made available in Portable Document Format. A glacier is a large mass of ice having its genesis on land and represents a multiyear surplus of snowfall over snowmelt. At the present time, perennial ice covers about 10 percent of the land areas of the Earth. Although glaciers are generally thought of as polar entities, they also are found in mountainous areas throughout the world, on all continents except Australia, and even at or near the Equator on high mountains in Africa and South America.

    Accurate information on the status of the world's snowfall, sea ice, permafrost and mountain glaciers. From the National Snow and Ice Data Center.  
    http://nsidc.org/NASA/SOTC/index.html
    
    Extractions: The successful launch of ICESat on January 12, 2003, will provide valuable information on how global climate change affects the polar ice sheets and sea level. The satellite, part of NASA's Earth Science Enterprise, is scheduled to remain in its near-polar orbit for a minimum of three years, measuring changes in ice sheet mass balance as well as sea ice thickness and atmospheric properties. The GLAS instrument on ICESat will provide higher resolution and more precise measurements of the ice sheets than previous missions, greatly improving mass balance models and topographic detail of the ice sheets. NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center designed and built GLAS, and ICESat was assembled by Ball Aerospace in Boulder, CO. The spacecraft will be controlled on-orbit by the University of Colorado's Laboratory for Atmospheric and Space Physics (LASP). Laser altimetry and atmospheric lidar data from the mission will be among the products distributed by NSIDC beginning in late summer 2003. For more information on the mission, as well as detailed fact sheets and brochures, please visit the
