Clues

  • A unit made up of the relationships between separate components (6)
  • A.K.A Net Balance, the difference between the total accumulation and total ablation for one year (7, 6)
  • A huge mass of ice that moves slowly over land. (7)
  • The build up of the glacier due to snow being compacted into ice. (12)
  • The effect of large masses of ice on the landscape. Compressed snow accumulates to eventually form ice and create a glacier. (10)
  • The lower end of the glacier. (5)
  • The melting of the ice, mainly during summer months, and usually at the snout end of the glacier. (8)
  • The splitting of the end of the glacier into smaller sections. These could become icebergs, if the glacier snout ended in the sea. (7)
  • These are confined by the valley sides that have already been carved out by a river. (6, 8)
  • These are large masses of ice which cover an entire land surface. (3, 6)
