“In this regard the knowledge of contemporary glaciation dynamics and prognosis of snowiness in the region become very important.”

“Fairview is a 1,500-foot granite dome formed by glaciation, with a challenging, nearly vertical face.”

“A final chapter reviews recent speculations on the causes of global glaciation.”

“It is assumed that glacioisostasy is the principal and virtually the only cause of oscillating movements of the earth's crust in regions with thick glaciers.”

“Glacioisostasy is the solid Earth deformation associated with changes in ice mass distribution.”

“The glacialist who can look back over the last twenty-five years of wordy conflict has every reason to be jubilant and hopeful.”

“The study states that measuring changes in the ice sheets are major challenges for modern glaciology.”

“In our sparsely populated field of glaciology we have our share of individuals in each category, and he was one of the finest in the last group.”

“In addition, there are historical photos from expeditions pertaining to scientific studies of Arctic archaeology, glaciology, and geology.”

“They wound up paddling through an ice maze on a lake at the toe of a glacier.”

“Some tribes boiled or steamed the large and fleshy roots of ballhead waterleaf with the bulbs of yellow glacier lily.”

“Conduction of heat to the glacier surface from the air and condensation of water vapour are important variables causing ablation.”

“One parent is a glaciologist, and the other is a fan of all things sciencey and mathy.”

“Next summer the glaciologist and his crew will take their six tons of equipment to begin research in southwestern Himalaya.”

“A glaciologist said the crevasses could be wide open, waiting to swallow the unwary.”

“During Pleistocene times this resulted in a glacial climate and widespread continental glaciations in high latitudes.”

“Their study by others led to the discovery of multiple glaciations, separated by interglacial periods.”

“An alternative view on uplift and climate change proposes that the Quaternary glaciations in the Himalayas could have enhanced uplift.”

“The glaciers of the Himalayas, which feed the great rivers watering the farmland keeping Asia alive, are disappearing.”

“The late renaissance had little experience of pack-ice and polar seas, but they did have plenty of glaciers in the alps.”

“Snow will often accumulate and can eventually compact to form glaciers and ice caps.”

“This then provides the opportunity for Milankovich cycles to become the pacemaker of the ice ages, causing alternating glacials and interglacials.”

“Glaciation in the Pleistocene was a series of glacials and interglacials, stadials and interstadials, mirroring periodic changes in climate.”

“The interglacials and glacials coincide with cyclic changes in the Earth's orbit.”
