Clues
- A glacier formed below the terminus of a hanging glacier by the accumulation, and reconstitution by pressure melting (regelation), of ice blocks that have fallen and/or avalanched from the terminus of the hanging glacier. Also called Glacier Remanie. (13, 7)
- A glacier with a or temperature-regime in which liquid water coexists with frozen water (glacier ice) during part or even all of the year. (9, 7)
- A Glacier with a terminus ending in a body of water influenced by tides (aka ocean) . Typically , tidewater glacier calve ice to produce icebergs. (9, 7)
- A lake that is located adjacent to the terminus of a glacier. Typically, these lakes form in bedrock basins scoured by the glacier. They enlarge as the glacier retreats. Sometimes they are dammed by an End or Recessional Moraine (3, 8, 4)
- A narrow, tubular chute or crevasse through which water enters a glacier from the surface. Occasionally, the lower end of a moulin may be exposed in the face of a glacier or at the edge of a stagnant block of ice. (6, 7, 4)
- A ridge of glacial sediment that forms when the terminus of a retreating glacier remains at or near a single location for a period of time sufficient for a cross-valley accumulation to form (11, 7)
- An irregular-shaped layer or pile of glacier sediment formed by the melting of a block of stagnant ice. Ultimately, ablationa moraine is deposited on the former bed of the glacier. Also called Ablation Till. (8, 7)
- Part of a glacier that is perennially covered with snow . Also called Neve (12, 4)
- Regular sets of small ridges, transverse to ice stream flow- commonly found in iceberg trackmarks on sea floor (11, 5)
- The study of tree rings and subfossil wood to provide information about the glacial and climatic history (16)
