Description Of Glaciology
What is glaciology ? glaciology is the study of ice in the environment. Important components are seasonal snow, sea ice, glaciers
http://www.geophys.washington.edu/Surface/Glaciology/glac_what.html

Extractions: Glaciology is the study of ice in the environment. Important components are seasonal snow sea ice glaciers ice sheets and frozen ground . The extent of these types of ice reflects the present and past climate. Examples are: hemispheric snow cover in winter, thickness of sea ice on the polar oceans, depth of frozen ground, volumes of glaciers and the physical and chemical properties in layers cored from ice sheets. The ice also affects climate. For example, the large areas covered by snow and sea ice reflect solar radiation away from the Earth's surface and thereby influence the heat balance of the earth. Because these ice components are only decimeters to meters thick, they can change on time scales as short as seasons and can influence climate at all time scales. Glaciers and ice sheets are hundreds to more than one thousand meters thick and change significantly only on decadal or much longer time scale. On these longer time scales they can influence atmospheric circulation and global sea level. More locally all of these types of ice influence hydrology, geomorphic processes and pose various natural hazards.

We also help develop educational pages, and contribute to larger projects. NSIDC was established at the University of Colorado by NOAA/NESDIS in 1982, to serve as a national information and referral center for polar research. While NSIDC is not part of NOAA, we are affiliated with the NOAA National Geophysical Data Center (NGDC) through a cooperative agreement, and archive and distribute our NOAA data in partnership with NGDC

The World Data Center system was established as part of the International Geophysical Year (1957-1958). WDCs conduct international data exchanges in accordance with the principles set forth by the International Council of Scientific Unions (ICSU) through the ICSU Panel on World Data Centers. As one of more than 40 WDCs around the world that are collecting, archiving, and distributing geophysical data, the World Data Center for Glaciology provides a focus for snow and ice information services. WDC for Glaciology, Boulder receives support through a cooperative agreement between the University of Colorado and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), and is affiliated with the NOAA National Geophysical Data Center (NGDC). Data sets cover the subject areas of glaciers, avalanches, snow cover, polar ice masses, ice cores, sea ice, and fresh water ice. In addition, the WDC includes extensive library holdings.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glaciology

Extractions: Other languages: Nederlands From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Glaciology is the study of glaciers , or more generally the study of ice and natural phenomena that involve ice. It is an interdisciplinary earth science that integrates geology climatology meteorology hydrology ... biology , and ecology . The presence of ice on Mars and Europa brings in an extraterrestrial component to the field. Areas of study within glaciology include glacial history and the reconstruction of past glaciation patterns, effects of glaciers on climate and vice versa, the dynamics of ice movement, the contributions of glaciers to erosion, lifeforms that live in the ice, and so forth. Unsurprisingly, glaciology is one of the key areas supported by polar research. There are two general categories of glaciation which glaciologists distinguish: alpine glaciation , accumulations or "rivers of ice" confined to valleys; and continental glaciation , unrestricted accumulations which once covered much of the northern continents.

http://ak.water.usgs.gov/glaciology/FAQ.htm

Extractions: Top of this page Common Questions and Myths about Glaciers Questions: 1. Why are there glaciers? Glaciers form where more snow falls than melts over a period of years, compacts into ice, and becomes thick enough to begin to move. That is, a snow patch becomes a glacier when the deepest layers begin to deform due to the weight of the overlying snow and ice. 2. Why are glaciers blue?
