142. Newton's Apple Season 15: Glaciers Explain that glaciers not only are found in polar regions like Antarctica and glaciers can have an enormous effect on sea level around the world. http://www.ktca.org/newtons/15/glaciers.html

@import "http://www.tpt.org/includes/station_tpt.css"; To Purchase NEWTON'S APPLE videos and other science stuff, call 1-800-588-NEWTON Begin the lesson with the following question: Where is most of the freshwater on Earth currently found-in rivers, lakes, or glacial ice? Explain that glaciers not only are found in polar regions like Antarctica and Greenland, but mountain glaciers exist even at the equator. Glaciers can have an enormous effect on sea level around the world. Toward the end of the last ice age, 12,000 years ago, sea level was almost 300 feet lower than it is today. If global warming occurs, some scientists theorize that melting glaciers in the next century could cause a rise in the sea level worldwide. Over the last 25,000 years glaciers have had an even greater effect on our global landscape than earthquakes, volcanoes, hurricanes, or floods. But because they flow so slowly, they are often overlooked as a significant agent of change. A glacier is a large mass of ice that acts like a river, flowing downhill under the influence of gravity. Glaciers are "born" at high elevations where snow builds up over many years without significant melting. In these "accumulation zones," snow at the bottom of the pile gets compacted by the weight of new snow above, causing it to turn into dense glacial ice. Once the depth of the ice reaches 20 to 30 meters (66 to 98 feet), there is enough pressure from above to cause the ice pack to slowly "creep" or flow downhill. As long as new snow is added at the top, a glacier will continue to move forward.

He has been painting for 50 years and his painting has gone through various stages in this 50 years period. Inspired first by a magnificent landscape of mountains, glaciers and lava, he began painting landscapes. But shortly after 1950 the thrust of modernism was very common among artists, and Gísli as well as a number of other painters in Iceland took up more or less abstract painting. Still under influence of Icelandic nature, the source of the abstract pictures was found in the landscape. After 1970 Gísli turned away from abstractions and began painting in the figurative way again, now mainly people. This was a narrative period, the motives from old sagas and folklore. That developed by the years into more and more fantasy-painting and the source was mainly poetry. He even held one big exhibition at the Kjarvalsstaðir museum in 1982 where all the paintings derived from poetry. This period was extended to 1998, when the circle was closed and Gísli Sigurðsson was again inspired by the landscape, mainly the landscape of high altitude and wilderness in Iceland, which has a very special beauty. He has been working on this theme since, sometimes in quite a figurative way, though always somewhat stylized. The motive can a panorama, but it can as well be something very small and close; something you see in this nature if you look down by your feet. And if you are not familiar with that kind of nature, some of the pictures might seem to be abstract.

WORKING GROUP ON ANDEAN GLACIERS Head of the Working Group: Deputy Head: Main purpose We propose a Working Group on Andean Glaciers with the main goal of highlighting the advances and understanding related to mass balance and glacier changes of Andean glaciers of South America and bringing these findings to international recognition. Our effort will foster cooperative scientific efforts in South America and help to tie these efforts with international programs currently underway and new programs in the future. Our working group follows from the ICSI-sponsored symposium on "Glaciers of the Southern Hemisphere", held in Melbourne, Australia in July 1997. The following topics related to mass balance of Andean glaciers are to be addressed: 1) Mass balance measurement techniques 2) Mass balance monitoring programs 3) Recent glacier variations and their relation with climate 3) Glacio-hydrological studies and the relation with glacier mass balance The tasks of the Working Group are to: 1) Organize an International Symposium on Andean Glaciers, publishing the resulting papers in an international journal 2) Prepare an electronic newsletter related to Andean Glaciers to be distributed once a year among interested scientists and agencies 3) Maintain a list of active scientists and organizations from South America and abroad who currently deal with Andean glaciers Although no funding for research is available through the Working Group, IUGG will provide limited funding for organizing the Working Group meetings and publication of papers. Close ties are envisioned with other organizations such as the International Glaciological Society (IGS) and World Glacier Monitoring Service (WGMS).

But new research suggests that in the time of the Roman Empire, they were smaller than today. And 7,000 years ago they probably weren't around at all. A group of climatologists have come up with a controversial new theory on how the Alps must have looked over the ages. AP The Morteratsch glacier in Switzerland has retreated by 1.5 km since 1900. Some scientists believe that glacial fluctuation could be a more normal development than previously thought. He may not look like a revolutionary, but Ulrich Joerin, a wiry Swiss scientist in his late twenties, is part of a small group of climatologists who are in the process of radically changing the image of the Swiss mountain world. He and a colleague are standing in front of the Tschierva Glacier in Engadin, Switzerland at 2,200 meters (7,217 feet). "A few thousand years ago, there were no glaciers here at all," he says. "Back then we would have been standing in the middle of a forest." He digs into the ground with his mountain boot until something dark appears: an old tree trunk, covered in ice, polished by water and almost black with humidity. "And here is the proof," says Joerin.

XYZ Spanish glaciers melting fast (Monday, October 04, 2004 ) Greenpeace has released a report on the state of Spain's glaciers. The glaciers on the Spanish side of the Pyrenees are melting fast.. Total surface area has dropped from 1779 hectares in 1894 to 290 in 2000, representing a fall of 85% in of surface area. 52% of this has occurred in the last 20 years, and 30% between 1991 and 2001. Taking 1890 as the high benchmark helps the authors. Europe was coming out the colder centuries of the Little Ice Age. but I'm really not sure about their claim that the end of this period was caused by the beginning of the Industrial Revolution. Their position seems to be that all climatic change during the last 10,000 years is in part human induced. As is often the case, Greenpeace needlessly exaggerates their case. Blaming almost everything on humans does the researchers no favours, and only helps the case of anti-climatic change interests. The slow melting of as much as 50% over much of the 20th century could easily be natural as part of the climatic pulse. Perhaps the defining characteristic of the Quaternary period in which we live is its inherently changing climate, in comparison with more stable climatic periods of the past. Clearly though, the current and excelerated melting is certainly human induced.

Courtesy National Portrait Gallery POSTED 23 FEB 2001 One look and he knew. It was global warming, and it was written in the ice capping Africa's tallest mountain, Kilimanjaro. The amazing thing about global warming is that it's painless, Lonnie Thompson thought as he struggled with a frozen gear in an ice drill. Everybody thinks global warming will hurt. It doesn't. Not yet, anyway. (The Why Files stands behind these scientific facts. But if you're sick of mock Hemingway, you can read the straight story "The journey that never ends," some natives called the great mountain. The ice-cap that will end soon, Thompson mused as the bit churned tropical ice. Kilimanjaro will still get snow, but it will be too warm for that snow to gather. His first African safari came after the Abraham Lincoln Brigade had been slashed to ribbons by the German dive bombers in Spain. He had sought solace in wine, women and wild animals and come to Africa to see truth, beauty and death in the shadow of the great mountain.

160. National Policy Analysis #235: Behavior Of World's Glaciers Fails To Prove Globa National Policy Analysis 235 Behavior of World s glaciers Fails to Prove Global Warming Theory February 1999 published by The National Center for Public http://www.nationalcenter.org/NPA235.html

February 1999 Behavior of World's Glaciers Fails to Prove Global Warming Theory by John Carlisle Global warming theory proponents have resorted to the politics of fear to drive their point home. They argue that man-made greenhouse gases are already causing the world's glaciers to melt, causing sea levels to rise and threatening humanity with a multitude of economic and environmental calamities. A recent Smithsonian Institution exhibit on climate change, for instance, included a depiction of the Washington Monument partially submerged in the Atlantic Ocean, leaving visitors with the distinct impression that we must reduce greenhouse gas emissions now if we want our descendants to be able to visit the famous monument. But such scenarios belong in the realm of science fiction, not science fact. Glaciers Are Inaccurate Barometers of Climate Change Global warming theorists argue that examples of receding glaciers, primarily those located in the mid-latitude regions of the planet, provide evidence that climate change caused by human activities is underway. But glaciers are poor barometers of global climate change. Glaciers are influenced by a variety of local and regional natural phenomena that scientists do not fully comprehend. Besides temperature changes, glaciers also respond to changes in the amount and type of precipitation, changes in sea level and changes in ocean circulation patterns.1 As a result, glaciers do not necessarily advance during colder weather and retreat during warmer weather.
